As the patriarch of Woolf Farming and its related business enterprises, Woolf has built a reputation as an innovator in the landscape of California agriculture, but that characteristic ingenuity was on display way back in his Army days, as you’ll hear on Hometown Heroes.
I am honored to know Mr Woolf since about 1980 and be a small part of his life and organization. He had an idea in 1989 that involved myself and others and together we established Cal West Rain. We are all so blessed by men such as Mr Woolf and women of the greatest generation that are responsible for our freedom.
