Tell us a little bit more about your operation. So my family's been in agriculture as long as we go back in history. My grandparents and my great grandparents came over from Europe. We've been in agriculture in California since 1935 or 1920 and 1908. Both my parents grew up on dairies. Both my grandfathers then became orchardists and vineyardists, and ive been in agriculture growing up. My family has always been in the nursery business. (01:37–01:49)
