  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Valley View Winery: Experience the View, the Rogue Valley's Premier Winery (rack card) Author: Valley View Winery (Or.), David A. Gibb, Michael and Mark Wisnovsky Year: 2014 Valley View Winery, named after Peter Britt’s historic Jacksonville winery, is located nine miles from Jacksonville in the upper Applegate Valley of Southern Oregon. Valley View was founded in 1972 by Southern Oregon wine pioneer Frank Wisnovsky, a leading force in the development of the region’s wine industry. By sourcing local grapes for their wine making, Valley View helped to keep smaller vineyards and grape growers in business during early years. After Frank’s death in 1980, his wife Ann and sons Robert, Mark and Michael assumed responsibility for the vineyard and winery. Winemaker John Guerrero joined Valley View in 1985. Today, the Valley View Winery label has an international award-winning reputation, with its finest wines bottled under the Anna Maria label, in honor of Ann Wisnovsky.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Dr Vinay Pagay Author: Southern Oregon Research and Extension Center (Or.), Maureen Battistella, Philip VanBuskirk Year: 2014 The Southern Oregon Research and Extension Center (SOREC) is recognized throughout Southern Oregon for its deep commitment to and support of agricultural research, sustainable growing practices, humane animal husbandry and healthy living. Historically, SOREC consists of the Jackson County Extension Service and the Southern Oregon Experiment Station. Both of SOREC’s units serve as the front door to Oregon State University, Oregon’s Land Grant University, and its resources. In addition to its support of farming and ranching, SOREC maintains demonstration fields, and also runs community programs such as Master Gardeners, 4-H, Food Preservers, Land Stewards. SOREC staff was instrumental in the growth of the pear industry in Southern Oregon and spearheaded the emergence of grape growing and wine making in the 1970s and 1980s. The Southern Oregon Experiment Station was established in 1911, and was located south of Phoenix at the Jackson County Poor Farm where the Dog Pound is located today. There were three other local Experiment Stations until 1958 when all were combined and relocated to the current Hanley Road location. The Extension office was first located in 1914 in the basement of the Jackson County Courthouse, later moving to Maple Grove Drive in south Medford, next to the old Fair Grounds. When the county began development of the south Medford I5 interchange in 1994, the Extension was moved to the Hanley Road location.
