Episode 16- Dr. Heidi Peterson | Stewardship That Works: Conservation Rooted in Real Life
Conservation isn’t just about protecting land—it’s about understanding it. And in this episode, Heidi Peterson from the Sand County Foundation helps us explore how healthy land management starts with local knowledge, long-term thinking, and partnerships that actually work.
We talk about:
- The real-world tension between productivity and sustainability
- Why the best conservation efforts are co-created, not handed down
- What being a steward of soil health looks like in the industry and as a consumer.
If you care about food, farming, or the future of the land we live on, this episode offers a practical, hopeful look at conservation that’s not just ecological—it’s personal.
