A Harvest to Remember
As the sun was setting over the grapevines perched in perfect rows on the rolling hills of Sonoma County, Hereford breeders and supporters were raising their paddles and bidding to make a difference. The Harvest II fundraising event benefiting the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA) generated $2 million for leadership events and scholarships Aug. 26-27, 2016 at the Kunde Family Winery and Vineyards in Kenwood, Calif. The Harvest II event, hosted by Jim Mickelson, American Hereford Association (AHA) Board of Directors member, and his wife, HYFA Board of Directors member Marcia Mickelson, brought together 185 Hereford enthusiasts from across the United States to Boot Hill on their estate and welcomed dozens of bidders online.
