Today we Circle to Honor Indigenous Peoples’ Day & National Farmer Day
EMPOWER FARMERS WITH A RECURRING DONATION
OUR MISSION
We are a coalition of farmers, educators, doctors, scientists, and business leaders aiming to expose the human and environmental impacts of chemical farming and offer a path forward through regenerative agricultural practices.
OUR APPROACH
We address systemic change and scalability challenges facing our food and agriculture systems. We focus on 3 pillars.
AWARENESS
Storytelling builds bridges. Our coalitions are catalysts toward change.
EDUCATION
Expanding regenerative learning opportunities.
ECONOMICS
Financial incentives that support regenerative land management.
THE PROBLEM
A century of monocrop farming and reliance on pesticides has damaged our nation’s once-fertile soils and the health of every American. The rapid increase in pesticide use over the past few decades has coincided with this explosion of chronic disease.
A profound change in the demographics of chronic disease is underway in the United States. Independent research from private laboratories and universities around the world, are implicating glyphosate – the active ingredient in the herbicide Roundup.
THE SOLUTION
Regenerative agriculture focuses on rebuilding organic matter and living biodiversity in soil, which produces increasingly nutrient-dense food year after year — while rapidly sequestering excess atmospheric carbon underground to reverse climate change.
It brings proven results for farmers to have a profitable business and livelihood. Conventional inputs become unnecessary, increased organic matter in the soil brings insect biodiversity which helps manage pest pressure and the end market for organic crops increases the overall value of their crop making product value the priority over the conventional method of purely valuing yield.
At a time when there are more farmer suicides and bankruptcies than ever, bringing back economic success and life on the farm has never been more important.
Invest in a
regenerative future.
