Twins Brad and Randy Inducted into the Ag Hall of Fame

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

Brad and Randy received a great honor last week, along with four others, by being inducted into the San Joaquin Ag Hall of Fame.  The two were recognized for their commitment to sustainable winegrowing, community and industry involvement, and efforts to grow the region’s agriculture industry.

Brad and Randy felt incredibly honored to be among the distinguished list of Hall of Fame honorees, both past and present.

Brad:

It’s an honor.  We go about our business and jump in and help out where we can.  You like to think you’re making a contribution, and to be honored this way says maybe you have, so it feels good.

Randy:

You don’t do it by yourself.   We’ve got families that have stood behind us in our work and we’ve had loyal employees…who have helped immeasurably in the successes that we’ve been having.

Lots of us were on hand at the award dinner to cheer for them and the other honorees.  A special congratulations goes to Paul Burkner of AIM, who the Twins have worked closely with for nearly 30 years.
