In this episode we interviewed Daniel Griffith of the Robinia Institute. In today’s climate, regenerative agriculture is a popular phrase being used in the farming and health industries, as well as marketing campaigns. Daniel unpacks what the label “regenerative agriculture” means and why the conversation and practices surrounding this trendy label might need to be reframed. He posits that regenerative agriculture does not actually get to the root cause of our problems since it simply continues the cycle of mechanization and reductionism. As Daniel so beautifully says: “First we need to heal the soul before healing the soil.” Tune in for a philosophical conversation about the land, our connection to it, agriculture, community, and the hope for a better future. Allan Savory calls Daniel the “poet laureate of holistic management,” and he did a fantastic job of painting a vivid picture of the landscape with his words.
