Emily Payne: Vineyard Apprentice
“My vineyard apprenticeship has been a great experience. Transitioning careers, I wanted something beyond college learning and felt this role offered unique practical work in viticulture. The vineyard team is so experienced and always happy to share their knowledge. I’ve developed skills in winter vine care alongside tractor and vineyard machinery training. Learning from sustainable pruning consultants, Simonit & Sirch, has enhanced my college teachings, providing unique on-the-job experience I couldn’t have gained elsewhere.
