Every sports event is awash in ads for gambling apps. Casinos are now everywhere and you can even bet on if the pitcher was going to throw a curve or a fastball. Some even made money on betting if we were going to war or not. By all accounts, the easy availability of gambling is causing all sorts of social ills.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"sqsrte-large\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\">None of these opportunities tempts me to risk my money, as my job involves gambling. I\u2019m not a dealer or a croupier\u2014I work in agriculture. In farming, like in casinos, the house, or, in our case, Mother Nature always wins.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"sqsrte-large\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\">Like all gamblers, our mission is to improve our odds against the house.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.troonvineyard.com\">As a Biodynamic winery<\/a>, we strive to work in harmony with nature rather than against it. Industrial chemical farming cheats to beat the house. That\u2019s a good way to end up, in\u00a0<em>Godfather<\/em>\u00a0speak, sleeping with the fishes. Instead of sleeping with the fishes, we apply them to our soils.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"sqsrte-large\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\">The only legitimate way to improve your odds in farming is to be a good farmer. In our case, our good farmers are\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/craigcamp.com\/journal\/2026\/2\/19\/a-conversation-with-garett-long-biodynamic-soil-scientist\">director of agriculture, Garett Long<\/a>, and our master viticulturist, Jason Cole.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sqsrte-large\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\">In this episode of our podcast, we have an in-depth conversation with viticulturist Jason Cole, following his deep academic foundation in viticulture, how that has evolved as he has practiced in the real world, and how introducing him to Biodynamics has influenced his farming. We also look at the unique aspects of growing wine grapes in Oregon\u2019s Applegate Valley and why that makes our wines so distinctive.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"sqsrte-large\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\">So, instead of that gambling app, open your podcast app and listen to this new episode of The Wine Camp Podcast: Winegrowing in Oregon\u2019s Applegate Valley, a conversation with Master Viticulturist Jason Cole.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To paraphrase Dr. Suess,\u00a0 From there to here, from here to there, gambling things are everywhere Gambling seems to have overtaken the world, and it\u2019s hard to find something you can\u2019t bet on.
