Know Your Elders: Paddy Doherty

Jordan produces and hosts a podcast for Organic BC, a non-profit that accredits some of British Columbia’s organic certification bodies and advocates on behalf of the province’s organic producers. In this episode from The Organic BC Podcast: a longform conversation with a farmer who was present and active for all the major milestones of BC's modern organic sector. Paddy Doherty talks about communal farming in the BC Interior in the 70s, why organic farming appealed to him from the get-go, the art of growing great carrots, and his thoughts on the evolution of BC's organic sector.
