"We know the crops because we grow the crops."
Domenic Fino

As a third-generation family farmer himself, in Dinuba CA, Domenic grows wine grapes, almonds, organic peaches and plums. A life of actual farming for over 40 years has equipped him with the skills and insight to help producers throughout the six western states.
Domenic values a thorough skillset. For his own professional development, he earned his Certified Insurance Counselor (CIC) designation and Agribusiness and Farm Insurance Specialist (AFIS). In addition, he is a licensed Pest Control Advisor (PCA), and a licensed Certified Crop Advisor (CCA).
Jaimie Qua
Administrative Assistant
Jaimie enjoys being in the background; neither seen nor heard. If you attempt to speak to her on the phone, you'll undoubtably hear a screaming toddler in the background if she isn't included in the conversation. Jaimie usually loses all mental processing capacity by lunch time, so she's only available for a few hours in the mornings before the coffee loses its effectiveness and both she and the toddler need a nap. She used to work in retail and accounts payable, but now she's just a slave to her family, trying to earn a little extra money to support her plant addiction and buy more snacks for the children who never eat an actual meal.
