On Friday and Saturday 37 Ag students from all the highschools, along with Ryan Costa, Manteca High Instructor, were busy picking 15 tons of grapes at the school farm. The chardonnay grapes will be sold to Gallo Winery and the money will be used to benefit the MUST program. The students who worked will earn up to $100.00 for all of their time & hardwork. A Big "Thanks" goes out to a local farmer Mike Gikas who graciously donated picking bins, gondolas and forklift equipment so this could be made possible. Great Job!!!
