In 1885 Hans Jacob Jepsen, great-grandfather of Howard Hammond traveled to America from Denmark on the immigrant ship “Moravia.” Within a few years, he settled in Easton, CA and became the pioneer of Hammond family grape farming. Today three generations of Hammonds continue the farming heritage in Fresno, CA and through the production of Moravia wines.
