Simon Conway's interview with Representative Taylor Collins during Thursday's second hour.
Have you ever wondered if it's possible to reverse the damage we have done to our earth? Have you been told that going vegan is the only way to do so? When Taylor Collins bought 900 acres of factory-farmed land, it was completely barren, desolate, and degraded. But by working with nature's cycles and reintroducing animals in order to loosen the soil and give back to the land, Taylor transformed his farm into a thriving ecosystem that supports higher crop yields, healthier soil and more nutritious food. In this episode, we talk about the power of connection, the “green narrative,” and what we as consumers can do to help our earth today. The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the second best time is now – let's dive in! HERE'S THE JUICE: How factory farming works against nature's principles to yield a higher output yet lower nutritional value Taylor's belief that humans aren't inherently destructive but our values of “more more more” absolutely are Why monocropping as a “solution” to global food insecurity is promoting a broken system How regenerative farming mimics the cycles of nature and creates community Why we don't need to stop eating meat but we need to rethink how we do it The idea that healthy soil is the KEY to nutrient-rich foods and why topsoil is so critical Why “Impossible” Meat isn't actually a better or more sustainable solution than regeneratively farmed meat Why our farmers are in crisis – both personally and financially How to vote with our dollars when it comes to food and support the growing community of regenerative farmers Watch the full episode on What's The Juice YouTube Channel To support our ad-free show, shop Olivia's line of herbalist-formulated supplements for digestion, anxiety, thyroid support, and more by visiting www.organicolivia.com.

This podcast episode is a part of the REV x Farmer's Footprint Regenerative Podcast Series! In the ninth episode of our Regenerative Podcast Series in collaboration with Farmer's Footprint, we speak to husband and wife duo, Katie Forrest & Taylor Collins, founders of Force of Nature! Katie & Taylor discuss what for some might be a sensitive topic but an important one when it comes to the future of animal husbandry. Once again coming back to the soil was Katie & Taylor's lightbulb moment when optimising their diets and when switching from being plant based to meat eaters. In this episode they give us the most clear representation of the realities of consuming meat in 2023 and why regeneration is paramount in maintaining health across all biological systems. Force of Nature spent the last decade studying regenerative agriculture at ranches all over the world before we answered the community's call to launch their brand. Never before has a company founded on the principles of regenerative agriculture, curated a vast collection of land stewards, ranchers, and farmers who are committed to creating a positive return on the planet. All Force of Nature animals are raised in environments that encourage the expression of their natural behaviors while consuming the diets that they were biologically engineered and evolved to eat. What Makes Force of Nature Regenerative? As Force of Nature says, they are leading the regenerative revolution. They are on a mission to improve our collective environment and health through regenerative agriculture while creating food raised in a way that honors the systems within Mother Nature. They care for the soil, respect diversity in plants and animals on the land, and focus on natural outcomes versus synthetic inputs – no tilling, no synthetic chemicals, no hormones or antibiotics! Their range of meat is more delicious and nutritious than anything else you can buy, including organic and traditional grass fed.

Recorded live from the main stage of our first annual "What Good Shall I Do?" conference, Dr. Zach Bush's words highlight the need for us to first unearth our own beauty in order to realize our full potential as regenerative beings. By reimagining a more virtuous future where we allow ourselves to shine brightly, we also create a foundation for reconnecting to our humanness as well as the greater earth to which we belong.

Katie herself is a force of nature as a business owner, mother, wife, rancher, and human. Together, we explore the perennial nature of hope and how we can think about modeling businesses after lessons we learn in nature. Spread throughout are messages from the land and from our children about learning to slow down and to listen and an exploration of hope. Towards the end, we cover the importance of ground meat to the food system and the important role of aggregators in the regenerative business ecosystem.

In this episode of Where Hope Grows we explore the possibility that plants, animals, and overarching ecosystems have the capacity to communicate in a way that better enables us to understand their innate desires and biological needs. Through the transmission of energy for the purpose of communication, we ask what information might exist and how do we arrive at a place to experience these wonders. This episode will ground you to earth as a co-creator and open your mind to a beautiful possibility that when we are in tune with nature, we are intune with ourselves.

On this week's episode of Where Hope Grows, we take you live to the mainstage of the first annual "What Good Shall I Do" conference to listen to an amazing panel that demonstrates the power of collaboration. The concept of "collaboration" is a story we see played out in all of Mother Nature's brilliant architecture, yet humans often choose "competition" when establishing relationships and access to resources. This story is about regeneration, the management of hundreds of thousands of acres of land, the creation of a new supply chain, and the bison burger that served as a catalyst! My guests on today's episode represent 3 completely different industries, coming together, working in synchrony, and creating hope.

Eating quality pasture-raised meat can help heal the planet and our bodies. This is what it did for Taylor Collins, the co-founder of Force of Nature Meats, and a former vegan. Taylor today debunks myths propagated about the deleterious effects of meat on our health and on the land. He explains that animals are an integral part of the process of regenerative agriculture by sequestering carbon, re-vitalizing soil, and increasing environmental biodiversity. He also explains how eating meat is a regenerative act for the human body, since it abounds in nutrients that build muscles and improve hormonal and cognitive function. Not all meat is equal, he hastens to remind us.. Its provenance affects its quality and its effect on the earth. Go to forceofnature.com for more on their mission and for resources.

Use code "JOSH" for 10% off your first order Force of Nature is on a mission to improve our environment and health through regenerative agriculture while answering the community's call for food raised in a way that truly aligns with their values. The term “regenerative” means that the agriculture systems in which this food was raised honor the systems within Mother Nature. We care for the soil, respect diversity in plants and animals on the land, and focus on natural outcomes versus synthetic inputs. That means no tilling, no synthetic chemicals, no hormones or antibiotics, and beautiful, wide-open spaces. The result is what you expect. Disrupting the Big Food Industry We spent the last decade studying regenerative agriculture at ranches all over the world before we answered the community's call to launch Force of Nature. Never before has a company founded on the principles of regenerative agriculture, curated a vast collection of land stewards, ranchers, and farmers who are committed to creating a positive return on the planet. Our mission is to accelerate the creation of a global regenerative supply network, to justify our supplier partners' efforts on the land, and to offer consumers the awareness and the ability to vote for a system that aligns with their values. By reclaiming the legacy of meat, we will benefit all stakeholders of the planet and restore regenerative principles to their rightful place as the keystone to our agricultural system. Regenerative Farming is Better Meat that is more delicious and nutritious than anything else you can buy, including organic and traditional grass fed. Animals that are raised with honor in their respected natural environments, eating foods they are supposed to eat. A quality of life for ranchers and their communities that has been lacking for decades in the conventional system. A proven solution to our climate challenges with the power to sequester carbon and prevent many of the environmental disasters we face today.

Power Quotes From The Show Omnivorous Truth: Starving with Our Bellings Full "As a culture, as a species, we are starving with our bellies full. We are seeing plummeting fertility rates, chronic diseases, obesity, and children are dying. That is why we should all be caring and having this conversation that looks directly back at our food and the land on which everything is dependent upon." - Taylor Collins Revealing Food Industry Lies "Big Food, Big Agriculture, Big Oil, Big Chemical, and Big Pharma are all tied together in our food system and they support the left side party, the right side party, and all that flow of money says, 'Don't mess up this machine.' If you look at what's going on with social media and the internet as they try to censor conversations, we need consumers to break out of their mold and become independent thinkers to stop allowing themselves to perpetuate the myths and the lies that they have been fed for years and to look at what's really happening in the food industry. A value meal at Chic-fil-A is more expensive than buying regenerative protein and whole vegetables to make a meal together as a family." - Robby Sansom Healing with Regenerative Ranching "If my wife was still vegan today she would either be dead or in a wheelchair. We ditched the vegan diet and began to eat in an evolutionary consistent manner. Within days, years of symptoms we had just went away." - Taylor Collins Links From Today's Show Taylor Collins Robby Sansom Where Hope Grows Podcast EPIC Provisions: How This Husband + Wife Went From Being Vegan To Starting A Meat-Based Snack Brand These Founders Sold Their Food Company for a Reported $100 Million.

Started by first generation farmers, Katie and Taylor's journey into ranching was based on a vision to positively impact large-scale agriculture through producing nourishing food that improves the lives of animals, enriches the health of consumers, and regenerates the land on which we depend. Like much of the world, this once-fertile region has been industrially farmed for the past 100 years. Through persistent tilling of soil, planting of monoculture row crops, and overgrazing, ROAM Ranch was not capable of producing food upon its purchase. Land in this condition is often deemed "unsalvageable" and in many circumstances further degenerates with rest- but we are going to prove otherwise. Force of Nature Meats partners with regenerative ranchers to bring you the best meat on the planet, for the planet. With the intention to accelerate the creation of a global regenerative supply network. Never before has a company founded in the principles of regenerative agriculture curated a vast collection of land stewards, ranchers, and farmers who are committed to creating a positive return on the planet. Force of Nature now exists to give consumers the ability to vote for environmental regeneration by consuming meat that is actually good for the planet.
