I am a 6th generation California farmer in the Central Valley. Interested in collaborative solutions to the problems facing California to create lasting change.

Cannon Michael @agleader: “Durable solutions are the ones that include multiple stakeholders. We’ve got a state that’s worth fighting for. This too shall pass: let’s take the high road and take care of the state we love.” #cawater

Cannon Michael @agleader advises the next CA governor: "Get educated. Make water a priority. The knowledge gap is big. We need an educational onboarding for these folks before they can even articulate policy." #cawater

We are so grateful to our incredible advisory council! ✨

We just had two days of good food, great conversation, and a treasure trove of insights on all things #cawater. Your thoughtful guidance is invaluable - thank you!

Don’t miss our Central Valley Tour April 23-25. We’ll stand on Terminus Dam where federal officials released water in late January & engage with #SanJoaquinValley #cawater users who rely on Lake Kaweah's supply in the summer. Details & registration: ⬇️⬇️

Expansion of San Luis Reservoir set to boost California's water-storing capacity - @agleader: "It's going to add resilience." https://t.co/pi829gQFYy

[Ian James @ByIanJames]

"We are facing real shifts in climate that are showing us that we’ve got to learn how to adapt. If and when there is excess water available, we want to be able to store it and hold on to it, and use it wisely." @agleader https://t.co/pi829gQFYy

[Bowles Farming Co @BowlesFarming]

Happy #CaliforniaFarmworkerDay. We honor the hands that make it all possible. At @BowlesFarming , we’re proud to support our dedicated workforce with programs that promote health and growth for them and their families. Together, we bring fresh, sustainable #food to your table!

[Cannon Michael @agleader]

I decided to plot the historic July temperatures here at @BowlesFarming. They are pretty alarming and impact crop production throughout California. Diverse rotation, compost production, and investment in drip irrigation help, but only to a point. #food #ag #climate #hot #july

[Cannon Michael @agleader]

@blondealex sorry - meant inflow and outflow of reservoirs

[Cannon Michael @agleader]

@blondealex 8% because a million little fingers run into the main rivers. I am a big proponent of more data, but we certainly understand the flows in our largest rivers and inflows and outflows in our major rivers. It depends on what exactly your goal is, but we have a lot of it covered

[Cannon Michael @agleader]

@Carhartt Here is our crew wearing the shirts! Thanks again.

[Bowles Farming Co @BowlesFarming]

Thanks to our friends @Carhartt for sending us the great t-shirts made with #climate #beneficial #cotton from our #farm (https://t.co/ykqgqyAaG7). This is a great collaboration that includes @farmlinkproject and @Fibershed. Fighting #food waste & supporting farmers & farmworkers

[Bowles Farming Co @BowlesFarming]

We are blessed to have many bird species on the #farm for a number of reasons. #gopher control is one of them! We don’t use poison to control gophers but trap them. The birds help us with our efforts to control pests. https://t.co/O4jGhUmWbO @audubonsociety @AudubonCA
