Our guest this week is Jake Dailey – Founder of Rake Force, a veteran-owned, non-profit focused on regenerative agroforestry practices like fuel fire reduction and biochar creation as well as providing a therapeutic environment for veterans to experience ag. Growing up on public land in Idaho, Jake spent his early years outdoors- hunting, fishing, and working in environmental conservation.  His father and step-father both serviced in the military and he was born on July 4th in Pearl Harbor, so it was almost pre-ordained that Jake would also serve his country. He enlisted in the Army in 2007 where he later deployed to Iraq before leaving the Army several years later.  During this deployment, Jake was faced with an event that dramatically changed the direction of his life after service and moved him into agriculture as a way to cope.  In this episode, we get into: The tragedy during deployment and how it affected his life followingHis difficult transition out of the ArmyHis trial and error with a variety of different jobs and interestsHis foray into homesteading and eventually Rake ForceRegenerative agroforestry, biochar creation, hügelkultur, and fuel reduction activities Enjoy!

#41 – Jake Dailey (US Army) – Rake Force

Jake Dailey has started Rake Force, “Mobile response team for biomass reclamation and carbon negative conservation services. We use regenerative and permaculture strategies to restore ecosystems and individuals.” – rakeforce.us Jake describes how Rake Force works with goats to reduce flammable biomass in the forest.  Jake explains how the principles of Permaculture are served through this project, including the regenerative aspects of this work for Veterans, who benefit from being in the forest, and as the program grows, eventually being able to derive a livable wage from the work. Rake Force is a scalable project, modeled after the Citizen Conservation Corps (CCC) that could make a significant difference for the fire-imperiled Western US, and if properly supported could do so quickly. Music by: Craig Chaquico &amp; Russ Freeman, Paul Izak, Travis Knapp, Derrik Jordan, Deep Forest, Dana Lyons, Rupa &amp; the April Fishes, and Baka Beyond The post Jake Dailey – Regenerative Forest Management “Rake Force” appeared first on Paradigms Podcast.
