Podcasts about regenerative

Did you know that The United Nations has designated 2026 as the International Year of Volunteers for Sustainable Development (IVY 2026), the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists, and the International Year of the Woman Farmer? Join Food Sleuth Radio host and Registered Dietitian, Melinda Hemmelgarn for her conversation with Seth Itzkan, environmental futurist and cofounder of Soil4Climate, an international nongovernmental organization advancing the science, policy and practice of soil restoration through regenerative grazing and agroforestry practices as a climate solution. Itzkan discusses the role ruminants play in agriculture, soil restoration and sustainability.

As the old paradigm splinters into rage-filled, grief-stricken fragments, how can we lay the foundation for the total systemic change we so badly need?Even beyond the listeners to this podcast, it is obvious by now that there is no going back. As Oliver Kornetzke wrote in a particularly sharply written piece on Facebook back on 22nd January - before Alex Pretti was murdered by Trump's Federal Agents - what white America is not experiencing is not new, and is not a flaw in the system, it is the system.  This is what he says in more detail: White Americans are not witnessing the collapse of something noble. They're witnessing the unveiling of what has always been true. The rot now visible is not a flaw in the foundation. Rather, it is the foundation. It was poured with concrete, inscribed into laws, and baked into the American mythos. The violence, the inequality, and the selective application of “justice”—none of it is a betrayal of the American promise. It is the American promise, applied unevenly by design.For centuries, Black, Indigenous, and other marginalized communities have lived under the weight of this system—disenfranchised, disappeared, surveilled, caged, and killed. They were told to be patient, to be peaceful, to vote harder, to “work within the system.” And when they told the unvarnished truth—that the system is the violence—they were mocked, criminalized, and ignored.Now the machinery begins to grind down those it once served, and only now does the shock begin to register. But this isn't the system breaking. It's merely the mask coming off.The laws of this land protects power and wealth. It has always protected power and wealth. The state defends itself. And democracy here has always been ornamental—used to sanctify what power had already decided. The rule of law is not impartial. It's a weapon, a performance, a convenience afforded to the privileged. The pageantry of justice is reserved for those never meant to feel its weight.What you're seeing now is not the end of the American dream. It is the truth of the American reality, finally uninterested in disguising itself. The empire is simply turning inward.Many will not want to read this. They will flinch, deflect, and rationalize. They will call me divisive, bitter, and extreme. They will attack, argue, and dismiss. And in doing so, they will only prove the point by choosing their comfort over clarity, and their denial over responsibility. Because that, too, is by design: the privilege of ignoring the truth until it shows up at your own door.So what do we do?  It is a founding principle of this podcast that there is still time to turn the bus that is humanity from the edge of the cliff of species-level extinction. We believe the Egregor, the Super-Organism, the death cult of predatory capitalism... whatever you like to call it, is in its death throes.  In its flailing, it might yet take us all with it, but that's not a given and in every single act of compassion, courage and community that we're seeing around the world from Greenland, to Venezuela, to Minnesota and beyond, we are building the leading edge of a new system. But we need a spiritual base to this.  I genuinely think we get through only if we can lift ourselves out of our Trauma Culture and into a new way of being - an Initiation Culture fit for the twenty first century.  We talk about this a lot on the podcast, and sometimes, we talk to other people who get this, and who are working explicitly towards a shift in consciousness of the whole human race.  Today's episode is one of those. Our guest is Marc-John Brown who describes himself with characteristic humility, as an integration coach, transpersonal life coach, and spiritually-oriented business coach. Since 2019, he has been an apprentice of the Shipibo-Konibo tribe of the Peruvian Amazon Jungle and an ally and collaborator among multiple other living indigenous peoples. Having met him, I'd say that Marc-John  is deeply connected with the spirits of the land in a way that is both profoundly wise, and deeply grounded.  He is one of those who comes to Elderhood at a young age, moving through the world with dignity and humility, helping others to reach the core of what it is to be human at this moment of total transformation.  Born and raised in Scotland, he has a deep spiritual connection to south America and to the indigenous peoples of that land. With his wife, Erika Huarcaya a native Peruvian of the Chanka peoples, Marc-John runs the Native Wisdom Hub, which seeks to bring people of our culture - the white, western culture that is currently eating itself alive - into authentic, enduring connection with the web of life such that we can all begin to change the way we are in the world.  On a recent Substack post, Marc-John says, 'We believe that, in large part, healing happens through nervous system co-regulation between indigenous wisdom keepers and modern seekers. Building healthy relationships. Creating psychological safety. Allowing trust to grow where mistrust has festered.'So this conversation delves deeply into the nature of the trauma we experience - and how we might heal the relationships between all parts of ourselves, ourselves and each other, ourselves and the web of life.  LinksNative Wisdom Hub https://www.nativewisdomhub.com/NWH on FB https://www.facebook.com/nativewisdomhub/Marc-John's Substack https://substack.com/@marcjohnbrownOliver Korntezke on FB https://www.facebook.com/okornetzkeWhat we offer—If you'd like to support us, come along and join the Accidental Gods Membership.

What is needed to truly move the needle on health? Create more research, more trials on nutrient density, more advocacy? Or, as Martin Reiter, founder of RARE argues, create the next regen Nestlé or Unilever: a 100 billion (yes, that's a B) regenerative consumer goods conglomerate, with only better-for-you and better-for-the-planet brands. The demand is there; the current incumbents are unable to innovate in regen, as they are built on chemical ingredients.The story usually goes like this: a group of people sets up a food (or cosmetics) brand that is better for you and better for the planet. Much better ingredients, honest sourcing, actually healthy, not UPF, etc. Then they need some money and raise funds, keep building, scaling, and at some point, 10–15 years down the road, the founders get tired and want to take some money off the table. and their existing investors need to get out and return money to their LPs.Currently, their only option is to sell to an incumbent, which then unfortunately usually screws it up. They start tweaking the ingredients, squeezing farmer margins, etc. The original founders leave after a few frustrating years.Is there a better way? A permanent home for regen, good-for-you, good-for-the-planet brands? A regen Nestlé or Unilever, if you will?More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is everywhere—but why does it help some patients and completely fail for others?In this episode, Dr. Greg Jones sits down with Dr. Joe Albano, a nationally recognized expert in regenerative orthopedics, to break down why not all PRP is created equal. They explore the real reasons PRP fails, including missed diagnoses, incorrect platelet dosing, poor patient preparation, and inadequate after-care protocols.Dr. Albano explains the true order of regenerative treatments, from PRP to bone marrow–based therapies, and why age alone should never disqualify someone from regenerative care. The conversation also dives into overlooked but critical factors like hormone balance, peptides, nutrition, sleep, body weight, and why common interventions—such as steroid injections and statins—can quietly sabotage joint and tendon healing.This is a direct, science-based discussion for patients considering PRP, stem cell therapies, or regenerative injections—and for anyone who wants to avoid costly mistakes and understand what actually helps the body heal.

This isn't a polished Instagram version of ranch life — it's the real work of leadership, culture, and stewardship.If you lead a farm, ranch, or family business, this conversation will challenge how you think about legacy, diversification, health, and intentional leadership.Key TakeawaysIntentional leadership starts with honest self-conversationJay defines being intentional as being genuinely honest with yourself about where you are and where you're going, not just what sounds good on the surface. Without that self-honesty, every big decision eventually cracks under pressure.Multi-generational success is built on communication, not nostalgiaFive and six generations working together isn't romantic — it's heavy. Jay explains that what keeps Black Leg Ranch intact isn't just tradition, but the willingness to have open, sometimes uncomfortable conversations across generations.Regenerative agriculture was a survival decision, not a trendThe ranch nearly collapsed in the 1980s and 90s. That pressure forced Jay's father to rethink soil health, grazing, and debt — pushing them toward cover crops, holistic management, and biodiversity long before it became mainstream.Diversity is risk management for the land and the businessBlack Leg Ranch didn't stack enterprises because it was fashionable — they did it because monoculture is fragile. Cattle, bison, hunting, agritourism, beer, and meat sales all create resilience when markets, weather, or supply chains break.Your health and the land's health are inseparableJay connects regenerative farming directly to human health — pointing out that a society growing sick food produces sick people, and that consumers are beginning to demand something better.Notable Quotes“Being intentional is being genuinely pointed with an end goal in mind — and being honest with yourself about it.” — Jay Doan“There's a weight that comes with legacy. You don't want to be the generation that screws it up.” — Jay Doan“We were homesteading before it was cool.” — Mark Jewell“Run your operation like a business first — lifestyle second.” — Jay DoanAction StepsHave the hard conversation with your family or partners about where the business is really headed.Audit your diversity. Are you exposed to one crop, one market, or one buyer?Look at soil health and financial health together — they're connected.Write down the stories of the generation ahead of you before they're gone.Get outside your comfort zone — internships, travel, and outside perspectives build better leaders.Listen If You ArePart of a family farm or ranch trying to survive generational transitionExploring regenerative agriculture or diversified revenue streamsFeeling the pressure of debt, stress, and monoculture...

What if the most overlooked organ in menopause is your skin?In this episode, Bahar speaks with Dr David Kosenko, Head of Medical and Clinical Training at Dermacosmetica, President of the Cosmetic Physicians College of Australasia, and a practising cosmetic physician with more than 30 years of clinical experience. They unpack the biological impact of oestrogen loss on the skin, why collagen declines rapidly after menopause, and how to support hormonal skin health with evidence-based care. Dr Kosenko explains MEP technology in Emepelle, a non-hormonal innovation that activates oestrogen receptors in the skin without systemic effects. The conversation also explores regenerative aesthetics, skincare routines for perimenopause and postmenopause, and the future of hormonal skin science. This episode is in partnership with Emepelle for Menopause Awareness Month.Topics covered in this episode include Menopause and skin health Oestrogen receptor function in skin Collagen loss in the first five years after menopause Adapting skincare for perimenopause and postmenopause Non-hormonal MEP technology and the innovation behind Emepelle explained Clinical results from the 20-week study How MEP in Emepelle differs from topical HRT creams Recommended skincare essentials (cleansers, antioxidants, SPF, retinoids) Regenerative aesthetics and collagen stimulation Visible improvements on neck and hands Why it is never too late to rejuvenate skin Chapters 00:00:00 Introduction to Menopause and Skin00:03:00 The Role of Estrogen in Skin Health00:09:00 Innovative Skincare Solutions00:15:00 Understanding MEP Technology00:21:00 Empowering Women Through Skincare Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/v1sAABo2xGESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Regenerative agriculture is increasingly seen as critical to tackling supply chain emissions, but scaling it requires more than technical fixes. At the recent scope 3 innovation forum, Danone's Ginny Maceda and Ian Welsh talked about how long-term relationships, shared investment and trust with farmers underpin the company's approach to regenerative dairy farming.

Allie tackles the disturbing weekend incident at Cities Church in Saint Paul, Minnesota, where Black Lives Matter and anti-ICE activists stormed a worship service, shouting obscenities, terrorizing families, and disrupting prayer — while the intrusion was livestreamed and covered by Don Lemon, who was invited and knew about the planned protest. She exposes the manufactured outrage, the double standards in media narratives, and the real agenda: using toxic empathy to shield criminals, some of whom are convicted child sex offenders, while demonizing law enforcement and Christians. Allie also addresses Russell Moore's interpretation of Romans 13 and brings biblical clarity to the matter. And lastly, she responds to James Talarico's New York Times interview, criticizing his terminology of "progressive Christianity" that distorts biblical teachings on abortion, homosexuality, and government welfare. A sobering call to discern truth, reject selective empathy, and stand firm for order, sovereignty, and the gospel.

What if the future of women's longevity wasn't about fighting aging—but teaching the body how to adapt, regenerate, and thrive? In this deeply insightful episode of The Girlfriend Doctor Show, Dr. Anna Cabeca sits down with renowned longevity and regenerative medicine expert Dr. Kathleen O'Neil to unpack the cutting-edge science—and timeless fundamentals—behind women's biohacking, immune resilience, and healthy aging. Dr. O'Neil shares her extraordinary journey from pathology and the morgue to elite performance medicine, explaining how understanding why people die transformed how she helps patients live longer, stronger lives. Together, they explore immune modulation, peptides, GLP-1s, light and dark therapy, bone regeneration, adrenal health, energy medicine, and why balance—not extremes—is the true secret to longevity. From menopause and bone loss to hyperbaric oxygen therapy, peptides like oxytocin and thymosin, and the power of adaptability, this episode is a masterclass in personalized, ethical, regenerative medicine for women at every stage of life. If you're curious about biohacking beyond the hype—and want grounded, science-backed strategies that actually work—this conversation is for you.     Key Timestamps 00:01:00 – Welcome & introduction to longevity and regenerative medicine 04:05 – Dr. O'Neill's time in the morgue and what it taught her about immunity, aging, and silent disease 08:15 – The immune system explained: friend vs. foe, gut training, adaptability, and immune modulation 12:18 – Light, dark, melatonin, oxytocin & why darkness is essential for regeneration 13:19 – Feasting, fasting, and the paradoxes that build resilience and adaptability 16:04 – GLP-1s, peptides, and why dosage variability matters for long-term results 21:14 – Energy medicine, biochargers, frequency, vibration & photobiomodulation 24:10 – Adrenal burnout, cortisol dysregulation, and immune collapse 28:17 – Bone loss, ovarian aging clocks, and why prevention must start earlier 30:04 – Bone health, muscle, oxytocin & rebuilding resilience after menopause 36:17 – Regenerative medicine, stem cells, and ethical innovation in longevity care 40:41 – Inside a cutting-edge regenerative medicine clinic 41:02 – Hyperbaric oxygen therapy, lymphatic drainage & advanced recovery tools 45:18 – Personalized medicine, foundations first, adaptability & final takeaways     Memorable Quotes "Longevity is really gerotherapeutics—preventing aging by teaching the body how to regenerate." – Dr. Kathleen O'Neil "You can't hack your life without doing the fundamentals." – Dr. Kathleen O'Neil "Balance—light and dark, stress and recovery—is what creates adaptability." – Dr. Kathleen O'Neil "The immune system is a living medication inside us." – Dr. Kathleen O'Neil "Everything I do today is serving the version of myself I'll be in the future." – Dr. Anna Cabeca     Connect With Guest Dr. Kathleen O'Neil, MD Website: treatwellness.boston Instagram: @treatwellness_ About Dr. O'Neil: Dr. Kathleen O'Neil earned her M.D. from Boston University School of Medicine (Magna Cum Laude) and trained at Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women's Hospital.

How to get more entrepreneurs building in the regeneration space? If you are a regular listener of this podcast, you have heard us discuss this so many times you probably lost count. No, we are not saying entrepreneurs and companies are the solution to all our problems. But entrepreneurial people who set up companies, but also non-profits and movements— basically people who don't accept the status quo and get to work to change it—are always the ones who change the world.So how do we get more of those started in the biggest challenge of all: how to regenerate a severely degraded world? And when people get bitten by the “soil” bug, how do we give them all the support and resources to make sure the chances of them succeeding against most odds are as high as possible? Or, in the words of Bart, how do we create the best enabling conditions for them and others to succeed?More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

Send us a textHow industrial farming, seed oils, soy, and pesticides impact food nutrition and health. Not medical advice.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Soy's rise in farming: Originating from paint uses and wartime chemicals, soy became dominant due to subsidies and large-scale farming practices, but introduces high PUFAs, phytoestrogens, and pesticides into animal feeds.Feed's impact on eggs: Chicken feeds high in soy and corn raise linoleic acid levels in eggs compared to low-soy alternatives; low-PUFA eggs improve digestibility for many.PUFAs & health effects: Feeding PUFAs fattens animals faster and disrupts human gut lining and metabolism; body fat composition changes take time, linking to chronic issues like low energy.Phytoestrogens in soy: These compounds pass into animal products, affecting estrogen signaling and gut health; mainstream nutrition often overlooks their risks despite historical low exposure.Dairy variations: Raw milk retains lactoferrin for iron regulation and gut support, plus enzymes and probiotics destroyed in pasteurization; it may resolve dairy intolerances for some.Regenerative farming model: Armstrong's cooperative emphasizes traditional feeds to “resaturate” foods, reducing PUFAs; supports small farms amid declining farm numbers.Ancestral diets insight: Traditional diets vary but share low PUFA levels, avoiding modern chronic illnesses tied to industrial fats.ABOUT THE GUEST: Ashley Armstrong, PhD co-founded Angel Acres Farm in Michigan and now runs Nourish Food Club, a cooperative of small farms producing low-PUFA, soy-free animal foods.RELATED EPISODE:M&M 273: Nutrition Content of Animal & Plant Foods: Beef, Plant-Based Meat, Raw vs. Processed MilkSupport the showHealth Products by M&M Partners: SporesMD: Premium mushrooms products (gourmet mushrooms, nootropics, research).

Rendez-vous sur Énergie Partagée pour en savoir plus : https://energie-partagee.org/souscrire-votre-argent-agit/Scaling up regenerative agriculture across Europe, supporting farmers and businesses in adopting more sustainable, nature-friendly practices.Cet épisode a été enregistré en collaboration rémunérée avec EIT FOOD. L'agriculture régénérative est partout. Dans les discours, les stratégies d'entreprise, les feuilles de route politiques. Mais derrière ce mot devenu omniprésent, que recouvre réellement cette approche ? Et surtout : comment passer de l'intention à une transformation concrète des systèmes agricoles et alimentaires en Europe ?Dans cet épisode, Jeane reçoit Mercedes Groba, Head of Regenerative Agriculture chez EIT Food, l'une des plus grandes initiatives européennes dédiées à l'innovation dans les systèmes alimentaires. Depuis plusieurs années, Mercedes travaille à déployer l'agriculture régénérative à grande échelle, en accompagnant agriculteurs, entreprises, chercheurs et décideurs publics vers des pratiques plus respectueuses des sols, du vivant et du climat. L'agriculture résiliente constitue l'une des priorités stratégiques de l'EIT Food, car elle est l'un des deux domaines thématiques clés à travers lesquels l'organisation encourage la transformation du système alimentaire.Selon Mercedes Groba, l'agriculture régénérative est le seul type d'agriculture viable à long terme.Au fil de cette conversation, elle apporte une définition claire et opérationnelle de l'agriculture régénérative et explique ce qui la distingue réellement d'autres formes d'agriculture. Elle revient sur ses impacts concrets : restauration de la santé des sols, renforcement de la biodiversité, résilience face aux chocs climatiques…L'épisode explore également les freins majeurs à l'adoption de ces pratiques : risques économiques à court terme, manque de sécurité financière, complexité du changement de pratiques. Mercedes partage les nouveaux modèles économiques, mécanismes financiers et leviers d'innovation nécessaires pour rendre la transition régénérative viable et désirable pour les agriculteurs.Cet épisode permet de mieux comprendre les enjeux et de penser une agriculture qui répare, nourrit et régénère à la fois les écosystèmes et préservent celles et ceux qui cultivent la terre.

Industrial farming has weakened soil biology, reduced food quality, and contributed to chronic disease, prompting renewed focus on soil health as a foundation for human health and agricultural resilience Regenerative agriculture rebuilds soil without reliance on heavy chemical inputs. This approach improves water retention, nutrient density, and long-term farm productivity In December 2025, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) launched a $700 million Regenerative Pilot Program to support farmers transitioning to soil-building practices The program uses existing conservation funds, public-private partnerships, and a unified application process to reduce administrative burden and make regenerative practices more accessible You can support regenerative agriculture through your daily food choices by prioritizing food from regenerative farmers, choosing pasture-raised meat and dairy, and avoiding ultraprocessed foods

  Ep 242 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara unpack a major policy shift in regenerative agriculture, a heartwarming (and delicious) NFL story, and the wildest winter sport you've probably seen but never knew the name of. From Secretary Brooke Rollins' $700 million regenerative ag pilot program to Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen gifting his offensive line quarters of premium Wagyu beef, this episode covers the intersection of agriculture, policy, and pop culture in the most entertaining way possible. But that's not all! The hosts dive into skijoring's new professional circuit (yes, horses pulling skiers through obstacle courses is now a legit sport with a $250K prize pool), celebrate whole milk's long-awaited return to school cafeterias, and explore the fascinating world of pearl farming after a viral video blew their minds. Plus, they share behind-the-scenes stories from their Discover on the Road oyster episode and why they're now oyster snobs for life. It's policy, sports, luxury gems, and dairy wins all in one action-packed episode. What We Discovered This Week

What does it look like to heal your relationship with money and align your finances with your deepest values?In this episode of The SYNARCHY Podcast, I sit down with Diana Gisel Yañez, CFP®, a money coach at All the Colors and wealth manager at Natural Investments.Through her unique, trauma-informed lens, Diana helps women of color entrepreneurs and impact investors understand why they do what they do with money - and how to create sustainable, value-aligned financial systems for themselves, their families, and their communities.Together, we explore:

The conversation centers around the Transition to Organic Partnership Program (TOPP), a USDA initiative aimed at supporting farmers in transitioning to organic practices. Ben Bowell and Jessy Beckett Parr discuss the program's origins, goals, and the collaborative efforts of various organizations involved. They highlight the importance of technical assistance, mentorship, and community building in fostering a successful organic farming network. The discussion also touches on the program's impacts, future sustainability, and the significance of respect and collaboration in achieving a better world for agriculture.Takeaways:TOPP is a USDA initiative with a $100 million budget.The program aims to support farmers transitioning to organic practices.Collaboration among organizations is key to the program's success.Technical assistance includes one-on-one support and mentorship.The program has reached thousands through various educational events.Farmers are compensated for mentoring new organic farmers.The program is designed to be community-based and regionally tailored.Future funding and sustainability are ongoing concerns for the program.The program aims to increase domestic organic production to meet consumer demand.The national partners are Organic Farmers Association, Trade Association, and Arizona State University Swette Center for Sustainable Food Systems.The Regional Leads are Oregon Tilth, CCOD, OCIA, MOSA, Florida Organic Growers, and PCO.Modern Species developed their 2025 Impact Report which helped them secure the remainder of their grant after the government funding freeze.Sound bites:“If there's already the organic demand, we just need to meet the supply domestically.”“People in the United States who are inside of larger agricultural corporations, food-based corporations, see the disconnect and the need to invest resources in domestic supply and production.”“We all cooperatively wrote the organic standards together, along with other movement aligned groups in the 90s.”“One of the emergent themes for us of this work has been how important the network itself is and how keeping people in collaboration across organizations and state boundaries supports all of our success.”“I love hearing the stories of the farmer to farmer sharing. It's really powerful.”“I really feel like a better world looks like a world that's full of respect, for the people, for the planet and its delicate balance of biology and ecology.”"It's about continuous improvement."Links:Transition to Organic Partnership Program - https://www.organictransition.org/Impact Report for Transition to Organic Partnership Program - https://www.organictransition.org/impact-report/Ben Bowell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-bowell-85901a1b3/Jessy Becket Parr on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessy-beckett-parr-a5a681185/…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radioChapters:03:00 Introduction to the Transition to Organic Partnership Program04:33 Understanding the Transition to Organic Partnership Program07:57 The Role of Partnerships in Organic Transition09:07 Regional Partners and Their Selection Process11:31 Goals and Objectives of the Transition to Organic Partnership Program15:20 Highlights and Accomplishments of the Program20:14 The Importance of Collaboration and Community23:37 Managing a Successful Collaborative Program26:54 Getting Involved in the Program29:13 Who is the Program For?31:06 Free Resources and Support for Farmers32:16 Future Plans for the Program35:00 Funding Opportunities and Strategies37:36 Advice for Collective Action and CollaborationSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hayden and Taylor Sievers of Sievers Blumen Farm in the Brussels, Illinois area share how their farm has evolved from a cut-flower business into a growing grazing-focused cattle operation, alongside grain and hogs, while keeping an eye on family, profitability, and building a system that works on limited acres.In This Episode, We Explore:How Sievers Blumen Farm got its name and the cut-flower beginnings behind the brandFarming in Calhoun County between the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers, and what that landscape means for grazingConverting a heavily tilled, flood-prone 80 acres into pasture over time while still cash cropping part of itChallenges of establishing pasture on heavy “black stick” clay and lessons learned with broadcast seeding and needing timely rainUsing wheat followed by cover crops and pasture as a transition plan away from cash croppingInfrastructure choices including high-tensile perimeter fence, step-ins, reels, and thoughts on central alley layoutsMoving from Dexters to South Pole-influenced cattle and what they noticed with fly pressure, forage efficiency, and easy-keeping traitsUsing cow-calf as a base herd while considering stockers and sell-buy marketing to capture excess forageTakeaways from stockmanship training, including receiving calves and getting them grazing quickly by focusing on mental and emotional stateRaising meat chickens (including Red Rangers) and layers, plus building and using a chickshaw-style coopTaylor's path into indie publishing, what she writes, and the discipline of finishing books while raising a familyWhy This Episode MattersIf you are trying to make grazing work on limited acres or on land that is less-than-ideal, this conversation is a practical look at how a young family is building infrastructure, improving soil over time, selecting cattle that fit their system, and staying focused on profitability and quality of life instead of chasing too many enterprises at once.Resources MentionedJoel Salatin (Joe Rogan Podcast)Greg Judy (grazing and fencing approach)Jim Elizondo and total grazing conceptsHand 'n Hand sell-buy marketing class (Tina and Richard)Stockman Grass FarmerWorking Cows podcastRanching Returns podcast (formerly Herd Quitter podcast)Bud Williams stockmanship (referenced through stockmanship training)Dirt to SoilBraiding SweetgrassFor the Love of SoilThe Creative Penn podcast (Joanna Penn)Wish I'd Known Then podcastThe Two Authors podcastJustin Rhodes Chickshaw (mobile coop design)O'Brien step-in postsTaragate reelsMeyer HatcheryMcMurray HatcheryAugust Horstmann's Ranch (Missouri)Find Out MoreWebsite | https://sieversblumenfarm.comInstagram | https://instagram.com/sieversblumenfarmFacebook | https://facebook.com/sieversblumenfarmYouTube | https://youtube.com/@sieversblumenfarmHere is a discount code for our farm shop (https://sieversblumenfarm.com/shop) that listeners can use for 10% off.

Bill Gates Foundation works in Africa: what goes through your mind when you hear those words? We all probably quickly have our thoughts ready, but hold on a second. Just as we often talk about farmers without asking them, we often talk about the African continent without asking people actually living there. So, we never fully grasp how big, how interesting, how full of potential, and how fundamental it is in a regenerative future.In this new series on The African Regenerative Frontrunners, we try to do that differently. We will be talking to amazing regenerative entrepreneurs on the continent, but we obviously are not the best suited to do that and thus won't be doing this alone. We are collaborating and co-hosting this series with Omoke Brian, aka The Organic Guy, who has been deep in organic agroecology for the last 10 years, based in Kenya, an entrepreneur himself and a podcast host. We will be co-hosting a number of conversations. We will both interview different guests and build upon each other's episodes, and we kick it off with a double interview where I join Omoke's show and he joins ours. More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

From Taboo to Transformation: Miki Agrawal on Regenerative Innovation, Fungi, and Building Businesses That Shift CultureIn this episode of Uncomplicated, I sit down with Miki Agrawal, serial entrepreneur, cultural disruptor, and the force behind THINX, TUSHY, and now HERO to unpack what it really takes to challenge normalized problems and build companies that don't just sell products, but change behavior.Miki has turned conversations society avoids into half a billion dollars in revenue, not through shock value, but through intention, creativity, and world-class execution. From period care to bathroom hygiene to tackling the global plastic crisis with fungi-powered diapers, her work proves that taboo isn't the problem, complacency is.This conversation goes far beyond entrepreneurship. We explore regeneration vs. “clean,” ecosystem consciousness, why innovation stalls when we're afraid to talk, and how one inspired action can ripple into massive global impact.What we cover:- Why taboo topics are often the biggest business opportunities- How questioning “what sucks in my own life” became Miki's innovation filter- The cultural cost of silence — and why innovation dies when dialogue stops- From THINX to TUSHY to HERO: building category-defining products people actually love- Why best-in-class products are required to change culture- The global plastic crisis and how fungi can help solve it- Regeneration as the next evolution beyond “clean” and “eco-friendly”- Teaching parents to exit diapers sooner (and why delayed potty training benefits no one)- Soft power, systems thinking, and shifting from individual to ecosystem consciousness- Why consumers, not corporations, are the world's most powerful investorsKey Takeaways:- Innovation begins where discomfort is ignored.- You can't change culture without a truly best-in-class product.- Regenerative thinking beats surface-level sustainability.- One inspired action, repeated daily, compounds into real change.- Businesses that honor nature can scale without extraction.This is a grounded, eye-opening conversation for founders, parents, creators, and leaders who believe business can be a tool for regeneration, not depletion.

In this episode, Cassidy Johnston shares her journey from growing up in the city to becoming a first-generation large scale beef producer and ranch consultant. She talks about a college research project exploring the relationship between environmentalists and ranchers and how that led her to an internship where she met her husband, and eventually to her life on a farm. She discusses the complexities of ranching at scale, the importance of animal welfare, her thoughts on regenerative and organic practices, and the communication challenges that arise ag people and non-ag people make assumptions about each other. Cassidy advocates for building a more resilient food system that prioritizes collaboration and understanding among all stakeholders, and dreams of a better world where more people have access to high quality food.Takeaways:Cassidy Johnston is a first-generation beef producer and consultant.She transitioned from urban life to ranching, finding her place in the rural community.The importance of understanding the relationship between ranchers and environmentalists.Regenerative practices in agriculture are complex and vary by region.Communication between agriculture and corporate sectors is crucial for progress.Quality of food production should be prioritized over sheer efficiency.Hands-on experience is essential for those looking to enter the ranching industry.A better food system requires collaboration and understanding among all stakeholders.Sound bites:"I have an environmental studies degree from CU Boulder, which is a hippie degree from a hippie school.”“ That happened to be the day that I met the guy who would later become my husband.”“That paper really focused on the fact that ranchers and environmentalists have many of the same goals.”“I think the trouble with regenerative is it's really difficult to wrap it up in a neat bow and say this is regenerative and this isn't.”“We have to be really, really cognizant of the fact that a lot of people are struggling to afford groceries and telling people that they should be paying nine or $12 or $15 a pound for regenerative ground beef is absolutely ridiculous.”“I've heard people say the cow is just a means to an end. No, she is her own sentient being. She deserves quality care.”“People will kind of look down on us for being the big guy, but when something goes wrong in their place, they call us to help because we have the skills.”“In order to understand how you can do things differently, you have to understand where we came from first.”“I think there's a lot of people in the corporate sphere who don't care. They're focused on making money. But, I also think there's a lot that do care, and it's our job to find them and help them do the best that they can with the power that they have.”“I would like to see a higher quality of pretty much everything. I don't care if you're large or small. I don't care if you're first gen or sixth gen. What is the quality of your operation?”“What are the things we can scale to fix these problems for everybody? Not just an elite few that have the money to pay for it. How do we make this better food more accessible? How do we give people the tools to fix it?”Links:Cassidy Johnston on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/casskjohn/JRC Consulting - https://jrcranchconsulting.com/JRC Consulting on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jrc-ranch-management-consulting/CKJ Communications & Consulting - https://casskjohnston.com/…When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi (Book) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25899336-when-breath-becomes-air…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radioChapters:03:00 Introduction to Cassidy Johnston's Journey09:08 Navigating the Urban-Rural Transition14:59 The Intersection of Ranching and Environmentalism20:54 Understanding Regenerative Practices in Agriculture32:49 The Role of Communication in Agriculture44:47 Quality vs. Quantity in Food Production56:31 Advice for Aspiring Ranchers62:30 Building a Better Food SystemSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Joel Salatin is one of the most influential voices in the modern regenerative farming movement. As the founder of Polyface Farm in Virginia, he's become known for building a radically different model of agriculture, one rooted in ecological systems, local markets, and a refusal to accept industrial “efficiency” as the end goal.In this episode, Joel shares what he's learned from decades of farming and advocacy, why the middle of the food system is where so many good farms get stuck, and what it will take to move regenerative agriculture to the center of our food system.In this episode, we dive into: • Why the industrial food system prioritizes scale and uniformity over real stewardship • What we lose when farming becomes a commodity business instead of a community livelihood • The biggest barriers that keep good farms from reaching more people • Why local processing and local markets matter more than most people realize • How Polyface built an alternative model that actually works economically • What it would take for regenerative agriculture to become “normal” again • Why Joel thinks the story we tell about food is just as important as the practices • Where he sees real hope, and what he thinks we need to stop pretending will fix thingsMore about Joel:Joel Salatin co-owns, with his family, Polyface Farm in Swoope, Virginia. Featured in the New York Times bestseller Omnivore's Dilemma and award-winning documentary Food Inc., the farm services more than 5,000 families, 10 restaurants, and 5 retail outlets with salad bar beef, pigaerator pork, pastured poultry, and forestry products. The farm ships nationwide to your doorstep.Salatin is the editor of The Stockman Grass Farmer, granddaddy catalyst for the grass farming movement. He writes the “Confessions of a Steward” column for Plain Values magazine, the “Homestead Abundance” column for Homestead Living magazine, columns for Homesteaders of America, and a column a month for the e-magazine Manward.

Regenerative agriculture is one of those terms that can spark a debate faster than a coffee-row chat about tillage, but on this episode of Ruminating with RealAg, host Amber Bell sits down with Joel Williams of Integrated Soils to keep things grounded. Williams, an independent plant and soil health educator who works with farmers around... Read More

Regenerative practices lead to higher quality and much higher prices in year one and, over time, to lower costs, which makes the regenerative business case in certain cash crops that are exported (spices, tea, coffee, etc.) so strong that it almost spreads on its own. Nothing is easy, but this is really hopeful. In this conversation with Thekla Teunis and Gijs Boers, founders of Grounded, Grounded Ingredients and Grounded Investment Company, we discuss why quality is intimately linked to regenerative practices.We talk about why we don't need transition finance in many cases, but we do need philanthropic capital to figure out what regenerative looks like in specific circumstances. When that research and development (in other sectors we would call that R&D ) is done, it can be rolled out profitably and relatively easily with more commercially focused, return- driven capital.We talk about why it's easier to act regeneratively in many places in the Global South (easier, not easy). And we talk about the why of super hands-on investing. Knock knock- there are regenerative barbarians at the gate. What if we do private equity right and use it as a tool for good?More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

Dr. Burke started working in health food stores while in college at the University of Michigan. In the late 70s and early 80s, he worked with industry pioneer Dr. Earl Mandel, eventually managing a chain of 170 stores. For 42 years, he hosted a national radio talk show focused on health. He now hosts the Honest Health with Jeffrey Burke podcast and serves as the Director of Education for Kokora Life, founded by Rick Scalzo. The Industry Evolution He credits his interest in natural medicine to his Ukrainian and Polish grandmother, who used to forage for mushrooms and dandelion tea and kept a perpetual pot of bone broth on the stove. This generational wisdom sparked a lifelong dedication to natural health that has spanned over four decades. Organic vs. Regenerative Farming Organic farming primarily focuses on what is not in or on the crop… no herbicides, GMOs, or synthetic chemicals. However, traditional organic farming still involves heavy tilling, which degrades soil over time. Regenerative farming follows organic methods but goes further by focusing on soil health and restoration. Key practices include no-till farming to prevent erosion, cover crops ensuring the ground is never "naked," bio-ferments that create a "probiotic" for the soil, biochar using burnt bamboo remnants, and increased worm populations that aerate the soil. Why Soil Health Matters Regenerative crops are often four to five times stronger than traditional crops. The transition at Rick Scalzo's farm resulted in a turmeric crop that was five times larger and significantly more potent. Burke notes that due to overtilling and chemical use, the planet may only have about 60 crops left. We've lost 40% of insect populations and 50% of bird populations. Regenerative food provides the mineral density the body craves, leading to better satiety. Health and Longevity Advice Shop the outer areas of grocery stores… avoid processed, chemical-laden foods in the middle. Real food has a short shelf life. Citing Blue Zones like Okinawa, Burke notes that the longest-living people eat a simple, consistent diet of 7 to 8 high-quality foods rather than a hyper-varied diet. When starting regenerative supplements, start with half the recommended dose because the potency is much higher. Watch the documentary "Kiss the Ground" to understand soil revitalization, and ask for regenerative products at your local health food store. In this podcast, you'll learn: The evolution of the natural products industry over four decades The state of the soil and agriculture today Why regenerative farming is the future of food and supplements   EPISODE RESOURCES: Website Social Media: LinkedIn Instagram

With Mary and Andrew from EdgePerma.comIn This Podcast: Andrew Tuttle and Mary Marshall, co-founders of Edge Perma and Redtail Edge Design, share how they're using immersive technology to transform regenerative agriculture education. Drawing from backgrounds in permaculture, ecological design, and lived experiences of healing through land stewardship, they explain how virtual farm tours can make regenerative systems accessible to anyone, anywhere. The conversation explores permaculture as a pathway to peace, community resilience, and personal healing, while highlighting the power of relationship-building, service, and inclusive learning. This episode weaves together technology, ethics, and heart-centered education to reimagine how people connect with land and food systems.Episode HighlightsImmersive virtual tours as a tool to “copy and paste” regenerative systemsPermaculture as a framework for peace, food security, and climate resilienceUsing technology to expand access to farm-based learningThe emotional and healing power of land stewardshipTeaching ethics, design, and systems thinking through lived examplesShifting from rejection to resonance through service and community careEducation designed for inclusion, not gatekeepingKey Questions AnsweredHow did Andrew and Mary's journey lead them to permaculture and regenerative agriculture?Their path began with questioning systems of conflict and scarcity, combined with personal grief and a search for healing. Permaculture offered a framework where humans could become restorative forces within ecosystems and communities.What problem do virtual farm tours solve in regenerative education?Most people never get to visit functional regenerative farms. Virtual tours bring these spaces to students, growers, and communities, removing barriers of geography, mobility, time, and cost.How do Edge Perma's virtual farm tours work?They combine 360° video, drone footage, aerial panoramas, 3D models, and clickable learning elements to show farms from every angle, including system evolution over time.What makes virtual tours different from in-person farm visits?They add layers of understanding—like aerial views, topography, and system mapping—that aren't possible on foot, while complementing (not replacing) real-world visits.How does this approach support different learning styles?The immersive, visual format supports neurodiverse learners and people who struggle with traditional classroom-based education, helping more people feel seen and included.What role does community and service play in their success?Andrew and Mary describe a shift from self-promotion to service, relationship-building, and listening—an ethic that unlocked trust, collaboration, and new opportunities.What does success mean to them beyond business growth?Success is measured in meaningful human impact—healing landscapes, supporting grief and remembrance, and creating spaces that nurture both people and the planet.Key Topics & EntitiesEdge Perma

A Care More Be Better Solocast with Corinna Bellizzi In this solocast, Corinna Bellizzi zooms out from the headlines to examine a deeper and more unsettling reality: the world is not moving together on climate action. Instead, nations are choosing very different paths — shaped by energy dependence, political cycles, economic pressures, and fear-driven narratives. Building on last week's episode, The Global Crossroads of Climate Policy, this conversation explores why global climate leadership is diverging, how policy instability and “climate whiplash” undermine progress, and why regenerative leadership offers a credible path forward amid uncertainty. Rather than focusing on doom or delay, this episode reframes divergence as a signal — one that reveals where systems are breaking down, where new models are emerging, and where leadership rooted in care, systems thinking, and long-term resilience is quietly reshaping the future. In This Episode, You'll Explore: Why a unified global climate response was always more myth than reality How energy dependence and political cycles drive divergent climate paths What “climate whiplash” is — and why instability may be as dangerous as inaction Why regenerative approaches change the climate conversation entirely Where regenerative leadership is already emerging beyond national politics What systems literacy, moral courage, and place-based wisdom look like in practice How to stay grounded and hopeful in a world moving in many directions at once Related Episode The Global Crossroads of Climate Policy: Progress, Pushback, & the Battle for a Regenerative FutureThis solocast sets the stage by examining recent global climate policy wins and rollbacks.
