Young marketing pro helps family farm




In the photos, Katie Bianchi (wearing the dark jacket) talks with her sister, Becky Klinesteker, while walking in their family's walnut orchard in Los Molinos.

The 25-year-old Bianchi is another of those unsung Under-40 go-getters, returning home after being the marketing director at Lucero Olive Oil in Corning to help run the new shop at her family's Bianchi Orchards. She'll be my next Western Innovator feature subject; you can look for the story next week at CapitalPress.com.

After today, my blog and Facebook postings will take a brief hiatus over the next few days, as I'm heading up to Salem for our annual company meeting. My next assignment in the north state will be Saturday, when I'll be attending the 4-H dummy roping and other events in front of the courthouse in Red Bluff (part of the run-up to the Red Bluff Round-Up). See you there.
