Hey there! Dive into this episode where we explore the true meaning of peace from a biblical perspective. It's not just about avoiding conflict or the "peace, dude" vibes from the 70s and 80s! We're delving into the deeper, richer essence of peace that originates from the shalom of the Old Testament – a peace that desires to make things whole again, just as it was in the creation story. Join us as we uncover how peace is one of the fruits of the Spirit, intricately linked with love and joy. We'll walk through scriptures that reveal how lasting peace comes from the Lord and how our conduct, inspired by God's teachings, can help maintain peace in our relationships. Ever thought about how pride can disrupt peace? Yeah, we talk about that too, and how embracing humility can pave the way to reconciliation and deeper connections. Whether you're dealing with personal conflicts or navigating the stormy seas of world politics, this episode guides you in nurturing the peace that surpasses all understanding. So, grab a cozy seat, maybe a warm cup of tea, and let's embark on a journey towards reclaiming peace in our hearts and our world. Shalom, my friend!

[Get the Full show notes and blog posts by visiting the Seeds of Tao podcast here] Description: How does a small, community-owned organic dairy, rooted in the slow-paced traditions of Amish and Mennonite farmers, compete against slick, billion-dollar brands? The answer lies in authenticity, a deep understanding of customer values, and a story that truly resonates. In this episode, Joshua sits down with Sam Ingersoll, a passionate advocate and marketing leader in the regenerative food space. Sam shares his incredible "full circle" journey—from growing up on a farm and hating it, to an Ivy League education and the high-stakes world of tech marketing, and finally back to his roots, promoting the very principles he once fled. This conversation is a masterclass in regenerative marketing, exploring how to build a resilient brand, why listening is your most powerful tool, and how the connection between soil health and our own gut health may be the most important story we can tell. Show Notes: (8:46) Welcome to Kalona, Iowa: Sam describes the unique "ecological oasis" where he works, home to one of the largest concentrations of Amish and organic dairy farms in the U.S. (11:14) What Gets You Out of Bed? Sam shares his passion for being a consumer advocate and how marketing regenerative products is a way to have a tangible impact on human health and the planet. (15:13) Building a Resilient Business: The fascinating story of how Kalona Supernatural was founded by Amish farmers and protected itself through diversification and vertical integration. (22:23) A 'Regenpreneur's' Journey: Sam details his personal story, from a farm in Washington to Yale, to a spam-marketing office in Pakistan, and his eventual decision to reject the conventional corporate path for more meaningful work. (29:25) Coming Full Circle: Sam talks about joining the board of Hungry World Farm, the very nonprofit that took over the farm he grew up on. (38:37) From Ivy League to Farmer's Logic: How Sam's educational journey taught him the power of asking "why" and how that same principle of observation and adjustment is critical in regenerative agriculture. (48:08) The Art of Regenerative Marketing: Sam reveals his strategy of slowing down, having one-on-one conversations, and building genuine, long-term relationships with customers and influencers. (1:08:29) The Tipping Point for the Movement: Sam's key insight—that the regenerative movement will truly take off when consumers, particularly women, connect the dots between soil health and their family's gut health. (1:19:55) You're Not Selling a Carrot, You're Selling an Experience: Sam's final advice for entrepreneurs on the importance of becoming educators and storytellers to differentiate their products and build a loyal following.

On this episode of the ReGen Brands podcast, we're joined by Joe Miller from Kalona SuperNatural — a 20-year veteran of the dairy world and a passionate advocate for organic and regenerative farming. We dig into Kalona's unique vertically integrated ecosystem (that includes 19 different businesses!), the brand's deep partnerships with family dairy farms, and all the ways regenerative is shaping their efforts from soil to shelf. Joe shares the story of how a group of farmers took matters into their own hands when the local co-op abandoned the organic market — and why practices like low-temp pasteurization and non-homogenization are helping differentiate their “almost raw” dairy offerings. We also discuss the challenging questions — how regenerative dairy can thrive and scale in a landscape dominated by consolidation, consumer confusion, and razor-thin margins. And Joe gives a heartfelt case for why organic and regenerative matters more than ever — to the land, to the farmer, and to the person drinking the milk. Episode Highlights:

Iowa Weather History: On July 3, 2001, severe thunderstorms in southern Iowa produced very large hail: 2.5-inch stones at Osceola, 3-inch at Otley, and 4-inch at Truro, causing widespread and extensive damage. Recent Severe Weather Trends: Hail has been infrequent this year, with the most recent notable event in north central/northwestern Iowa a few weeks ago. The primary severe weather mode this season has been wind, with only a few pockets of hail and very few tornadoes (no tornadoes in May, five reports in June, including a landspout). Despite fewer severe storms, thunderstorms have provided good rainfall, especially in northern and western Iowa, aiding drought improvement. 7-Day Weather Forecast: Expect average summer weather: several chances for thunderstorms over the next week. Temperatures will be typical for the season, with daytime highs in the mid-80s and overnight lows in the mid to upper 60s. Rainfall (QPF) is forecast at 0.5 to 1 inch, mostly thunderstorm-driven and variable. The best chance for statewide rain is Saturday night into Sunday, with additional chances late Tuesday into Wednesday. Climate Outlook: The July outlook initially showed a large dry area from the High Plains to the Gulf, but recent wet weather reduced this to a small bullseye over Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, and Iowa. The last ten years of Julys in Iowa have been 5–10% drier than average, influencing the forecast. The first half of July still leans wet for most of Iowa; models suggest the second half could turn drier. Past Week's Weather: The past week was about 2°F above average for temperatures and below average for rainfall. The state is transitioning to a quieter storm track, and soil moisture has improved thanks to late June rains. Eastern Iowa, especially around Waterloo, Cedar Rapids, Washington, Wapello, Linn, and Black Hawk counties, remains drier and needs more rain. Specialty Crop Impacts: Zucchini: Squash vine borer is active and affecting small plantings; some growers report a lull in fruit set, possibly due to poor pollination (weather or varietal timing). Squash bugs: Adults are mating; now is the time to scout for eggs and treat nymphs with insecticidal soap or oils. Adults are hard to control; many growers opt to replant rather than spray. Japanese beetles: Now appearing, mostly affecting basil (culinary and cut flower types), zinnias, and grape leaves. Basil downy mildew: 'Cardinal' basil (popular for cut flowers) lacks resistance and is vulnerable. 'Thai Prospera' basil offers downy mildew resistance and may be a better filler for bouquets. Garlic: Harvest is beginning. Use the "five green leaves, sixth browning" rule to time harvest for optimal bulb quality and storage. Tomato spotted wilt virus: A grower in Kalona who lost most of his tomato crop to this virus in previous years now sees minimal infection, likely due to reduced thrips pressure. Onion thrips can also vector the virus, so monitor onions for thrips damage. Upcoming Resources and Events: Dan will share links in the newsletter on strawberry plug planting, spring broccoli variety trials, root maggot information, and upcoming field days (flower field day in Decorah, urban ag field day in Waterloo, and a native plant propagation survey). summary generated using Perplexity.ai

Weather History & Current Conditions Historical reference: June 26, 1993 - Severe hailstorms in western Iowa with golf ball to softball-sized hail caused extensive damage to crops, trees, cars, and buildings Recent weather: 150-400% of normal rainfall across southern Iowa with some areas receiving 3-8 inches (equivalent to a month's worth of rain) Heat wave anomaly: Unusual combination of high 90s temperatures, high humidity, and sustained strong southerly winds for 24-36 hours - described as a "black swan event" Record temperatures: Many stations recorded daily record warm overnight low temperatures that didn't allow for cooling Weather Forecasts Short-term: Continued unsettled pattern with thunderstorms and slight severe weather risk in north-central to northeastern Iowa Coming week: Heavy rain potential (1-2 inches), cooler 80s tomorrow, then back to low 90s with Sunday thunderstorms followed by quieter conditions Extended outlook: 6-10 and 8-14 day forecasts show near normal temperatures with continued wet signal; July outlook leans warm statewide with slight dry tendency in western Iowa Sweet Corn Season & Pest Management Sweet corn timing: First harvest expected within days - Roger VanDonselaarr (Prairie Produce, Grinnell) and Hilltop Farm (Dallas Center) Production methods: Early growers use clear plastic mulch and row covers to accelerate growth Corn earworm challenge: Moths present requiring spray applications every 2-3 days, but wet conditions prevent field access Quality standards: Zero tolerance for worms in commercial sweet corn due to consumer expectations and processing requirements Drone spraying: Some growers adopting drone technology to overcome wet soil limitations, though wind conditions still restrict applications Disease Management & Crop Care Disease scouting tips: Stay out of wet fields to prevent disease spread Start with youngest, healthiest plants before moving to diseased areas Use clean clothes, tools, and boots daily Disinfect pruners between plants Current diseases observed: Bacterial leaf spot in parsley/cilantro and black rot in brassicas Garlic Production Scape removal timing: Research shows removing scapes as early as possible (when just emerged) produces largest bulbs Manual vs. mechanical removal: Hand removal preferred as mowing can remove leaves and reduce bulb size by 15% Market considerations: If selling scapes, wait for full curl; if maximizing bulb size, remove immediately Upcoming Events July 1: Plant diagnostic clinic at Twin County Produce Auction, Kalona (9-11 AM) July 8: Rodale Field Day at Midwest Organic Center near Cedar Rapids - featuring autonomous robotic ag tools July 31: Educate the Educators Day at Plant Peddler, Cresco August 1: Variety Day trade show at Plant Peddler End of July: Cut flower field day at River Root Farm, Decorah End of August: Midwest Mechanical Weed Control Field Day, Ames summary generated using claude.ai
