During their fireside chat, which was part of a Summit hosted by Food Tank and American Farmland Trust, they discuss the efforts to put food and agriculture front and center at the U.N. Climate Change Conference, how to hold onto current gains that support the health of the environment, and why the upcoming election is so important to the future of climate action. Then, Dani speaks with Dr. Cary Fowler, Special Envoy for Global Food Security at the U.S. Department of State, as part of an event hosted by Food Tank and the World Food Program USA. They discuss the tendency to underestimate the impacts of the climate crisis, the potential of the Vision for Adapted Crops and Soils, and why we need bolder solutions.

If you enjoyed our last episode with John Piotti, we have good news!  Heritage Radio Network is producing a monthly show hosted by John.  The show is called No Farms No Future, the podcast of American Farmland Trust.  The show will dig into the issues facing farms and farmers today.  We all need to eat, and as a result, we all need to know what faces the folks who raise our food.  Today we are proud to premiere the very first episode of No Farms No Future.  For more than 40 years, American Farmland Trust (AFT) has fought to keep farmers on their land, promote environmentally sound farming practices, and protect U.S. farmland. At a time when independent farmers and ranchers face ever-increasing financial and climate challenges, AFT works nationwide with them to help create innovative solutions for a sustainable food system. In this opening episode of No Farms No Future, American Farmland Trust, and the Food Voice, AFT president and CEO John Piotti explains how reversing the trend toward fewer local farms and declining soil health is critical to preserving our food supply and the planet. You'll also meet two farmers—one at the end of a career and one who is just beginning—who show how ingenuity and collaboration can brighten the future, one farm at a time.  You can find No Farms No Future on Heritage Radio Network, or wherever you get your podcasts.  Be Sure to Subscribe, so you don't miss an episode.  (Apple Podcasts | Stitcher | Spotify| RSS).Resources:Feature story on Sandy Gordon and Gordon FarmsPost and video featuring Sandy and JoshTo learn more about American Farmland Trust go to farmland.org. Episode photo by Shawn LinehanLet's Talk About Food is Powered by Simplecast.

In this episode, we talk with Chief Executive Officer John Piotti of the American Farmland Trust about how soil health can increase productivity and provide other benefits like the storing of carbon. Additionally, we talk about regenerative agriculture, climate change, pollinator habitat, and 'the silver lining' of healthy soils in mitigating increasing challenges to agriculture and the planet. John reiterates there are different case studies, tools, and practices that can help each farm improve the health of their soil. Technical educational service, good information, and financial assistance can be critical.

This week's Open Mic guest is John Piotti, president and CEO of the American Farmland Trust. In this week's conversation, Piotti expands on the group's mission to preserve valuable farmland and to expand opportunities for farmers to use their land as a carbon sink to battle climate change as well as produce food for a growing planet. Piotti sees support from private industry as well as government policy to reward farmers for agronomic practices that sequester carbon in the soil and improves soil health. Piotti says changes in land ownership is an obstacle to developing new support programs for farmers and discusses the reasons behind farmland losses.

Ep. 81: John Piotti, CEO & President of American Farmland Trust, Washington D.C. || On episode 81 of Sourcing Matters we welcome John Piotti, CEO & President of American Farmland Trust.  American Farmland Trust (AFT) is an organization that works to protect and conserve farmland throughout the United States. Headquartered in Washington, D.C, – AFT is staffed and governed by farmers, policy experts, researchers and scientists.  With the call to action of “Join the Movement”, “Save a Family Farm”, and “Stay Informed” – American Farmland Trust seeks to engage diverse stakeholders in evaluating: What will happen to the nation’s food supply if we continue to wastefully develop our best farm & ranch land? By the late 1970s, Peggy Rockefeller, a passionate farmer and active philanthropist, had become frustrated that none of the major environmental or agricultural organizations were effectively applying the emerging tools of land conservation to agriculture. She pulled together a brain trust to explore what could be done. This first-of-its-kind analysis of how and why America was losing farmland had recently been completed by USDA and the President’s Council on Environmental Quality. The group recognized the serious threat posed by farmland loss and concluded that our nation needed a new kind of organization, one that stood at the intersection of agriculture and the environment. It would take a unique and highly innovative organization to operate effectively in this previously unexplored realm. But there was clearly a void that needed to be filled. They formally chartered American Farmland Trust in 1980. John Piotti joined American Farmland Trust as president and CEO in July 2016, bringing more than 25 years of executive management and public policy experience to the organization.  Prior, John served as president and CEO of Maine Farmland Trust for 10 years. Under his leadership, Maine Farmland Trust became an award-winning statewide nonprofit organization, helping over 500 Maine farms remain viable. Piotti has earned a reputation as a nonpartisan problem-solver; as a Statesman, an Eisenhower Fellow – and – as a leader in future food that has helped stabilize a regional dairy industry, and procure funding to protect working waterfronts & our natural lands. John holds three degrees from the MIT, in engineering, public policy, and management. TuneIn to our 50 minute conversation to hear more about how the practice of American Farmland Trust has now cast over 6,500,000 acres of farmland in the United States into perpetual conservation.  With John’s focus on conservation (regenerative) agriculture practice of these lands, and more  – AFT will remain a pillar in American farmland access, and its management for the foreseeable future.   www.SourcingMatters.show

According to John Piotti, president and CEO of the American Farmland Trust (AFT), the U.S. is losing farmland at a rate of three acres a minute – 31 million acres between 1992 and 2012 alone.

Is sustainable farming the key to restoring our planet? On this episode of Add Passion and Stir, American Farmland Trust President and CEO John Piotti and Chef John Mooney (Bell Book & Candle, NYC; Bidwell, DC) talk with host Billy Shore and producer Paul Woodhull about the far-reaching impact of building a more sustainable food system. “If we don’t get farming right, we can’t have a sustainable future,” says Piotti. Chef Mooney’s restaurants use aeroponic rooftop gardens, which combine hydroponics with vertical growing techniques to grow fresh, pesticide-free produce. “It really suits us well to be able to do what I want to do as a chef and have it on location. [Staff] also get to learn and maintain, which gives them a little better sense of where our food comes from, which translates into the guest experience,” he notes. Preserving farmland is one of the most important functions of American Farmland Trust. “Farmland itself plays a huge role in environmental protection,” explains Piotti. “But you can’t think about only the farm. You have to think about the farming practices that occur on that land and you have to think about the farmers who are stewards of that land,” he says. Well-known for his commitment to sustainability, Chef Mooney also owns Kakele House, an organic farm and event space on the North Shore of Oahu. “For me it’s a lifestyle and not a job,” he says. Piotti touts the benefits that small, diversified farms like Kakele House have on communities. Listen in as these two guests discuss the meaning of sustainability and its impact on environmental, social and economic vitality.

Greek Physician Hippocrates once said, "Let food be thy medicine and medicine thy food." It has become increasingly clear that there is no more important way to approach health: doctors need to care about food. We need to care about where it comes from, and how our patients are getting it. Today we speak with John Piotti of the Maine Farmland Trust and Ted Quaday of the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association about these very issues.  https://www.themainemag.com/radio/2014/07/maine-farms-food/
