If there’s a universal truth in farming it’s this: your farm and your soil have unique needs. It’s why we work with you as a partner and go beyond recommending the usual commercial fertilizers that have flooded the market. As fourth-generation local farmers from the Modesto, Oakdale, and Turlock Region, we’ve been directly connected to the land for four generations. We understand that how you farm today will impact your farm tomorrow and for generations to come.
We’ll work with you to boost your yields and provide a solid return on your investment, but not at the cost of your land’s health. At Fourth Gen Solutions, we only recognize products with the potential to deliver impressive ROI and preserve the productivity of your land for the future. Rather than promote commercial fertilizers that leave harmful salt deposits, we offer products and cultural practices that promote and protect your soil’s native aerobic bacteria.
I began working in my family’s vineyards and nursery at the age of 8 years old. From transplanting nursery stock, to building soils, to harvesting grapes, I learned about the intricacies of farming from an early age. My great grandfather instilled in his children and grandchildren strong values and a strong work ethic, which I’ve carried forward throughout my career. After studying business at the University of Mississippi, I returned to the Central Valley to build what is known as Fourth Gen Solutions, an Ag distribution and consulting company, while personally developing my first almond orchard and helping manage the families vineyards and walnuts. My goal is to place each farmer in control of his or her inputs through smarter farming practices centered on sustainability—ensuring productive land for future generations.
