Some of the people Joan employs have other fixed jobs, or work as entrepreneurs themselves. The seasonal uneven distribution of agricultural labour make it possible for many of them to have time to do some little agricultural tasks on the side.

Joan is a good example of small holder farmers that navigate the local bonds of solidarity and commitment to larger international wine markets
