Just south of the Oregon border lies Humboldt and Del Norte Counties – where redwoods meet the sea along California's rugged coastline. It was back in 1992 that – Blake and Stephanie Alexandre – decided to purchase a beautiful piece of farmland in Del Norte’s Crescent City to start their very own dairy farm. They are both fourth-generation farmers: Blake, from Ferndale, California; and Stephanie, from Chino, California. They converted their dairy to organic in the late 90s– taking their love of farming back to its hundred-year-old roots. Their families have a longstanding emphasis on taking care of the grass and the animals that subsist on it, and they were thrilled to be bringing back the organic production practices of their grandparents. At the time of our organic certification in 2001, they were the 9th certified organic dairy in the state. Growing up across the street from the dairy, their five kids have always been involved in the day-to-day activities on the farm. They’ve experienced the gift of having wide-open pastures as their playground, learning how to drive tractors at age six, and feeling the beauty and compassion in working with and caring for the animals they have on their farm. Each member of their family has developed a unique and bright passion for agriculture. With agriculture degrees from Cal Poly, three of their kids now run the farm with them – and are creating their 6th generation of Alexandre Family farmers!
