Jesus "Chui" Torres Martinez
Redwood Empire Vineyard Management
|
|
Jesus Torres Martinez, known by his friends and co-workers as "Chui," developed his love of agriculture while working in the fields in Mexico, just as his family has done for generations. The day after he arrived in Sonoma County, he met his current employer, Kevin Barr at Redwood Empire Vineyard Management, and has worked with him for thirty-seven years now. A few years ago he was recognized by Sonoma County Grape Growers Foundation (SCGGF) for excellence in the workplace. Chui loves to teach others and share his viticulture knowledge and he enjoys working as part of a skilled vineyard crew. When not out in the vineyard, his perfect day off is sharing carne asada with his family and friends. Here’s Chui's story.
