REAP Featured Radio Story on KALX 90.7

REAP Climate Center was recently featured in a radio story by KALX 90.7 about the growing need for regenerative agriculture skills in California. Reported from REAP’s urban campus in Alameda, the segment follows trainees in REAP’s Regenerative Jobs program as they learn hands-on practices like composting and biochar—skills that can help restore soil health, conserve water, and open pathways into emerging climate and land-stewardship jobs. The story offers a glimpse of REAP’s broader mission: pairing community learning with practical job training to support livelihoods, climate resilience, and nature-positive systems change.

The piece was reported and produced by Patricio Provencio O’Donoghue, a journalist at UC Berkeley’s Graduate School of Journalism whose work focuses on environmental and climate justice storytelling. It aired as part of North Gate Radio’s “Fun with Food Across the Bay,” an episode exploring how food, community, and the future of the Bay Area intersect. The full episode was broadcast on KALX 90.7 FM and is available through North Gate Radio and Apple Podcasts.
