Show Notes

In Dirt on the Milky Way, we took a hard look at the dairy industry and its impact on farmers and health. In this episode, 2nd of a 3 parts series, we’re bringing it closer to home, getting the inside scoops from a local regenerative farmer. Cody Nicholson Stratton of Foggy Bottoms Boys farm in Ferndale, CA, joins us to break down what sustainable dairy looks like—compared to what Big Milk is doing elsewhere.

We dive into manure management strategies that reduce methane emissions, the role of different cow breeds, and what makes Humboldt County dairy unique. Plus, we get into the buzz around raw milk and A2 milk.
