I have the pleasure of working with some small scale farmers and they are the truth.

We are destroying our soil health for short term profit. We need more regenerative farming but PE doesn’t like the margin on that.

Yvon Chounaird advocates for bringing small scale farming back. It’s good honest work that could help with our unemployment and purpose issues while restoring planetary health.



Can small scale regenerative farming scale enough to feed everyone? I would love to read more if you can point me to some resources.


I’ve heard it can if we apply some of the techniques to larger scale farming.

Yvon talks about it a bit in “Let my people go surfing” but if you want something more focused I’m not sure. I’ve mostly picked stuff up through convos here and there, haven’t done a deep dive.

I haven’t read this but it sounds promising: https://www.patagonia.com/product/regenerating-earth-farmers...
