Dubbed the best damn party of the year, this boot-stomping hoedown kicks off the harvest season. More than an event, Harvest STOMP is a heartfelt toast to Napa Valley’s agricultural heritage and an inspired call to continue safeguarding its future.

This extraordinary evening raises funds for two of the Valley’s most vital viticultural nonprofit organizations: the Napa Valley Grapegrowers and Napa Valley Farmworker Foundation. Fifth-generation grape growers—Kendall Hoxsey Onysko and Morgaen Hoxsey Pickett—will host the not-to-be-missed 18th annual Harvest STOMP.

So, dust off those cowboy boots, grab your favorite hat, and get ready to raise a glass, raise a paddle, and share in an unforgettable night that celebrates the very spirit of Napa Valley.

18th annual harvest stomp

On Saturday, August 23, Harvest STOMP will come alive at our family's historic property in Yountville for an unforgettable night. Our beloved Pole Barn, built by our great-grandfather Andrew Pelissa in 1936, sits at the corner of Yount Mill and Cook Road across from Block House Vineyard, where Napa Valley's first grapevines were planted in 1837.

YOUR SUPPORT MAKES A DIFFERENCE

There are many ways to give generously during Harvest STOMP before and at the event, all in support of two 501(c)3 non-profits: the Napa Valley Grapegrowers and the Napa Valley Farmworker Foundation. Working side-by-side for over 13 years, these two organizations are critical to ensuring a thriving Napa Valley winegrape industry and community-at-large.

Every bit of support counts, as all funds raised equally support NVG’s educational programs focused on increasing quality, innovation, and environmental stewardship in the vineyard, and FWF’s mission to provide education and career advancement opportunities to farmworkers and their families.

So, for anyone who loves Napa Valley and wants to ensure it remains a national treasure for future generations, for those who understand the transformative power of education in breaking down barriers and fostering thriving communities, and for anyone who has cherished memories of sharing a bottle of Napa Valley wine with loved ones—supporting NVG and FWF through Harvest STOMP makes a tangible difference in our ability to uphold these values and initiatives.
