30 farmworkers completed the winter program

Every winter the Napa Valley Farmworker Foundation, in partnership with the Napa Adult School, offers English classes for vineyard workers. Farmworkers can get a jump start in December with a two week intensive, followed by a10-week program.

"I just want to thank everyone who made it possible for us to have these classes. My English is not very good, but I am still learning. Being here for 10 weeks has helped me a lot, I know how to speak a bit, but I didn't know how to read and write. Now I can read and write it better. I recommend everyone to come to the classes and it's a good opportunity and there is always something good to learn." - José Ramirez, Walsh Vineyard Management

"For me it was very important to join the English class because it is an incentive to continue studying and it's the beginning of a new chapter. I hope to continue studying and I want to thank my mentors, Allison and Beto, who were there with me during my classes, because I have learned a lot. Thank you." -  Guadalupe Morales, Cliff Lede Vineyards
