A Hanford woman is being honored for her work with agriculture and community service. Lilia Giacomazzi will receive the Tapestry Award at the annual Common Threads luncheon on March 16. The Common Threads award recognizes women in agriculture who have chosen to make a philanthropic difference in their communities.
The rarely given Tapestry Award further recognizes individuals who have made remarkable contributions to their field. "This is only the second Tapestry Award we have ever given out," said Sadie Hemsath, Assistant Director of Development for California State University Fresno's Ag One Foundation.
