Vineyard in the Valley and Hope for Haiti

If you love great wine and giving back, this episode is for you. Vineyards in the Valley isn't just another tasting event—it's a celebration of community, connection, and compassion. Founded by Scottsdale locals and lifelong friends, Ricky Palmer and Skyler Badenoch, the event brings together more than 65 ultra-premium wineries, local chefs, and supporters for an unforgettable experience benefiting Hope for Haiti. Ricky curates the incredible wine lineup, while Skyler, as CEO of Hope for Haiti, ensures that every sip supports life-changing healthcare and opportunity for women and families in southern Haiti. Together, they've created something truly special—an event that shows just how powerful our community can be when we gather for a cause.
