Welcome back to another episode of Ag on the Edge!
Our guest is Lisa Fox, a licensed Pest Control Advisor and Qualified Applicator in California. Lisa is the owner of Eatwell Consulting, providing pesticide safety and regulatory compliance training to farmers, ranchers, growers, nurseries, municipalities, and their employees throughout the state of California.
Join us as we talk about what it really means to "be organic", how pesticides are the last resort for protecting crops, upcoming regulatory changes for pesticide use in California, and the extensive training and oversight required for using pesticides in our state.
Quick note: At time 38:36, Lisa and I are discussing both the state and federal agencies that oversee and regulate pesticide use, which have very similar acronyms. We used the acronym FDA (federal); please note it is CDFA (California), and where we mention CDFA, it should be FDA.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
