Jack Zech, a fourth-generation farmer, talks about coming back to his family farm after several years moving up the ladder of a large clothing company. We discuss what he learned through managing retail stores and overall strategy for Uniclo and what motivated him to leave corporate America to return to his family’s farm in the California delta.

Jack shares how he is adjusting to the change and how he has started in filling whatever gaps the farm needs. In addition to helping with the farming operation, Jack is starting a distillery business as a sister-company of the family farm. We dive into some of the early wins and challenges he has faced with building this business. Enjoy!
