Regenerative Agriculture

Picture
“Regenerative Agriculture” describes farming and grazing practices that, among other benefits, reverse climate change by rebuilding soil organic matter and restoring degraded soil biodiversity – resulting in both carbon drawdown and improving the water cycle.
Specifically, Regenerative Agriculture is a holistic land management practice that leverages the power of photosynthesis in plants to close the carbon cycle, and build soil health, crop resilience, and nutrient density. Regenerative agriculture improves soil health, primarily through the practices that increase soil organic matter. This not only aids in increasing soil biota diversity and health, but increases biodiversity both above and below the soil surface, while increasing both water holding capacity and sequestering carbon at greater depths, thus drawing down climate-damaging levels of atmospheric CO2, and improving soil structure to reverse civilization-threatening human-caused soil loss. Research continues to reveal the damaging effects to soil from tillage, applications of agricultural chemicals & salt based fertilizers, and carbon mining. Regenerative Agriculture reverses this paradigm to build for the future.

We offer onsite and online education about growing, cooking and preserving food with a global, cultural, and historical lens. 
This program takes us back several hundred years, and invites us to look at the landscape across time and space, and to consider the seeds as having their unique story to tell.
Our K-12 curriculum will be available on a local and national level in 2023. ​
