Are you passionate about “creating something of worth for other people” ?

Question by Faith: Are you passionate about “creating something of worth for other people” ?
ASHIKAGA, Japan (CNN) — When Bruce Gutlove holds up his vineyard’s finest bottle of chardonnay, he sees the clarity, senses the anticipated crisp taste, and savors the hard summer of tending to his grapes.”Delicious,” he said proudly, as the managing director of Coco Farm & Winery.

More than 100 developmentally disabled people work to create Coco Farm and Vineyard’s wines.

Most of them live full-time at the vineyard, which is also a school for the developmentally disabled. The philosophy is that hard work and diligence will help improve their lives.Gutlove expects nothing less. A winemaker from California, he arrived at Coco Winery as a consultant, planning on a stay of three months. He had no experience with the autistic or developmentally disabled. At the end of the three months, he decided to stay and keep working on the wine.

What made him stay, he said, were the students. “Seeing the passion and their desire to create something of worth for other people is very, very impressive.”

As far as the pairing of autism with winemaking, it is a natural fit.
“Autistic people are very detail-oriented. They like the repetitive work and so some of this works very, very well with their personalities.”

Coco Farm & Winery is different not only in the products it produces for commercial sale in Japan, but also in that it operates with a mix of income from sales of the wine, grants from the government, donations, and tuition from the families of its students. The students are paid a “wage” which is then returned to the vineyard as “rent” for their lodging.

Machiko Ochi, the daughter of the creator of Coco Farm & Winery, said the success of the vineyard and the students has been in part Gutlove’s lack of formal training with the disabled.”Bruce considers all of the residents colleagues,” she said. “This is a big distinction. Treated as equals, the residents meet his expectations on the job.”

Hiromitsu Watanabe, 28, is one of those students. When he first arrived at Coco Farms & Winery several years ago, his counselors said he could not communicate with anyone. Today, he is thriving in his new environment and talking non-stop.

“I think everyone is being helped here,” said Gutlove, “including myself.”
