Show Notes

“Regenerative” is one of the new buzz words right now—though many of us are not sure why it is important and how it relates to our life and work. ASBN assembled a panel of entrepreneurs, farmers, and investors who are practicing at the forefront of the regenerative organic, agriculture movement. Today, you will learn why regenerative, organic agriculture is important to the earth and its inhabitants. Further, you will have a chance to explore how you can incorporate the practice into your investment, business or educational pursuits. Held just six weeks after COVID shut down much of the US, this conversation looks the disruption in our food supply chain, and at the moment many of our organic suppliers were facing unprecedented adversity that threatened their future. If advocating for policies that advance regenerative agriculture and justice interest you, reach out to Colton Fagundes (cfagundes@asbnetwork.org) to learn more. 

This conversation was led by Nancy Rosenzweig (Values Aligned Capital) featuring Mark Retzloff (Co-Founder of Horizon Organic Dairy, Aurora Organic Dairy, and Alfalfa’s Markets), Phyllis Van Amburgh (Founder, dharma Lea); David Barber (Co-Founder/Owner, Blue Hill; Founding Partner, Stone Barns Center for Food and Agriculture); Jean-Charles Morisseau (Chairman, Cleante, Ubees, and Veilleur de Nuit) on regenerative agriculture & climate change.
