She eventually buys a large share in the Ojai Food Co., thanks to the large amount of money William leaves her and Rebecca. Yet then she proposes that the company buys a winery and it is voted down, to the joy of Sarah. However, when Tommy hears of the idea, he and Holly go into business together by buying and opening the Walker Landing winery.
