👩🌾 2026 is the International Year of the Woman Farmer! Hear a few words from Kaylie Grundmeyer, Assistant Winemaker & Vineyard Manager of Lone Buffalo Vineyards in Auburn, California. A UC Davis graduate, she is a wealth of knowledge, especially when it comes to soil & plants! This is especially helpful as she maintains the health of the vines, which affect the flavor profiles greatly in crafting fine wine! She tackles hard, long summer days with true grit and a positive attitude.
🍇 We encourage you to support local farm-to-bottle wineries like Lone Buffalo because they have long-term soil health in mind, not just quality of product!

INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF THE WOMAN FARMER | Horton Iris Garden in Loomis grows on land farmed since 1857, and women have shaped its story for generations.
In 1990, Mary Ann Horton began gathering the wild, historic irises growing across the property to landscape the farmhouse drive. The hobby bloomed into a business. Horton Iris Garden opened to the public in 1999, all while Mary Ann taught mathematics at Sierra College and American River College.
Since 2017, her daughter Lori Kambe has worked alongside her, growing blooms for build-your-own bouquets, filling orders and keeping the farm's social feeds thriving.
Today the garden holds more than 1,600 iris varieties, where history and innovation bloom side by side.
