Have you heard about the lover’s quarrel between organic and regenerative food? In this episode, we explore how binary battles like this contribute to the problems advocates are trying to solve and how the work of a Canadian forage-finished beef producer, Craig Cameron of Peony Farms in Alberta, can help highlight a better path.
If you haven't heard about the emerging rift between organic and regenerative farming, that's understandable. It’s mainly an insider’s game at this point – although, you do see it spill out into various social media posts here or there about which system is better and who is the true apostate.
As regenerative agriculture becomes a more popular, and widely-used term, you will likely see more of this food fight -- so in this episode, we take some time to explore this topic and perhaps provide some insight into how to navigate it.
As Craig Cameron explains in our feature interview, outcomes should be the focus instead of the process used to get there. After all, it is what happened that matters – not what was tried or what was or was not done.
Plus, get your latest brief soil health lesson from Dr. Jill Clapperton. Learn about the rhizosphere and how it can help us understand the importance of embracing connectedness as a precursor to solving tough problems.
Finally, learn more about the forage-finished beef being created by Craig Cameron of Peony Farms and how this way of creating beef is bringing better, proven outcomes for us, the cows, and the surrounding environment.
