Dorn Cox is a farmer-technologist, the research director for the Wolfe's Neck Center for Agriculture and the Environment in Freeport, Maine, and farms with his family on 250 acres in Lee, New Hampshire. He is a founder of the farmOS software platform and Farm Hack, and is active in the soil health movement. In this episode of Nature Revisited, Dorn breaks down his radical vision of hope for the future of healthy regenerative agriculture. By employing the same data-sharing and networking tools used to visualize and identify the global instability in our climate and our communities, there is potential to revolutionize how we manage food production around the world, decentralizing and deindustrializing the structures and governance that have long dominated the agricultural landscape.

This week on the NOFA/Mass Podcast we are going to take a deep dive into a system of farm and garden design that aims to be a holistic approach to food production, land stewardship and even how we interact with other people. Permaculture! We will get into the history of this system, what it is and why so many Organic and sustainable growers love it. We will also hear my chat with Jono Niger the author of The Permaculture Promise and the main man at Regenerative Design Group all about the principals and the zones. Plus this week's Farm Hack that is a super space saver and our Farm Fail that is a craaaazy time waster! So, kick back, get ready to observe the patterns cuz we are going to get Permaculture-y!
We can save the world people! By sequestering atmospheric carbon! This week on the NOFA Mass Podcast, we’ll be getting into the knitty-gritty of soil carbon restoration. Why it’s so important to get carbon out of the air and into the soil and how you can make a difference, whether you are a large scale farmer, homesteader, gardener or consumer. We’ll be hearing my interview with Sharon Gensler a homesteader extraordinaire who uses regenerative, no-till techniques and teaches workshops all over the state about how you can build your soil and sequester carbon too. Plus, this week's Farm Hack is super smart and super sweet!!
This week on the NOFA/Mass podcast we are asking the age old question what the heck is Organic anyway? Ok, so not AGE old but since the 60s.. The 70s? We’ll get into it with a little history lesson on where the term Organic farming came from, why we have it, why we still need it and what it tells you about the food you eat. We will also be talking to the wonderful Laura Davis about NOFA/Mass’s Organic Certification program and her journey to running her own Organic farm. Plus a super stinky Farm Fail and a Farm Hack that really upgrades trellis growing!

Two Percent Solutions for the Planet profiles fifty innovative practices that soak up carbon dioxide in soils, reduce energy use, sustainably intensify food production, and increase water quality. The “two percent” refers to: the amount of new carbon in the soil needed to reap a wide variety of ecological and economic benefits; the percentage of the nation’s population who are farmers and ranchers; and the low financial cost (in terms of GDP) needed to get this work done. As White explained in his previous work, Grass, Soil, Hope, a highly efficient carbon cycle captures, stores, releases, and recaptures biochemical energy, mitigating climate change, increasing water storage capacities in soil, and making green plants grow. Best of all, we don’t have to invent anything new—a wide variety of innovative ideas and methods that put carbon back into the soil have been field-tested and proven to be practical and profitable. They’re mostly low-tech, too, relying on natural resources such as sunlight, green plants, animals, compost, beavers, creeks, and more. In Two Percent Solutions for the Planet, White expands what he calls the “regenerative toolbox,” to include holistic grazing, edible forests, biochar, weed-eating livestock, food co-ops, keyline plowing, restoration agriculture, bioenergy, aquaponics, animal power, Farm Hack, bees, bears, wildlife corridors, rainwater harvesting, native seeds, and various other projects from across the United States, as well as in Canada, Europe, and Australia. These short, engaging success stories will help readers connect the dots between diverse, exciting, and pragmatic practices, and inspire them to dig deeper into each individual story and concept, energized by the news that solutions abound.
