"Do no harm," says regenerative farmer Blake Alexandre, co-founder of Alexandre Family Farms. "That's the theory behind organic. And when you do that, good things happen."

In this episode, Dr. Keith Flamer and Dr. Tom Jackson talk to Alexandre about his journey from a one-room schoolhouse to studying dairy science in college, what it takes to convert a farm to organic, and why it matters.

Dr. Keith Snow-Flamer has been President of the College of the Redwoods since 2015. Dr. Snow-Flamer holds a Ph.D. in Educational Leadership from Gonzaga University.
Dr. Tom Jackson, Jr. is the President of Cal Poly Humboldt. A first-generation college graduate, Jackson is also a veteran of the U.S. Coast Guard Reserve, Army National Guard, Texas State Guard, and Indiana Guard Reserve. He holds an Ed.D in Educational Leadership from the University of La Verne.
