Will Harris is a Fourth Generation Farmer and CEO Of White Oak Pastures in Bluffton, Georgia. At White Oak, they use techniques broadly know as regenerative farming which work with nature instead of against it. These methods have been shown to be carbon negative, which is probably contrary to what you may have been told about the impact of animals on the environment. Will has featured on other large shows such as The Joe Rogan Experience and Fundamental Health With Dr Paul Saladino.
