A fantastic way to understand regenerative farming for small farms. Small farms produce so much value beyond yields. Listen in to this lovely podcast.
Fixing our broken food system, one farm at a time!
New podcast! I talked to Andrew Flachs, author of the wonderful new book, "Feeding the World as if People Mattered." He's an anthropologist who explores the food system through the lens of human values—not just profits and yields. He finds—no surprise!—that smaller and more biodiverse farms contribute so much to soil health, human health, rural communities, and the biosphere—even as those very same values are degraded by big monoculture farms. By expanding our accounting to include people and the planet, we could have a thriving food system that actually benefits life itself.
