Regenerative Agriculture & Soil Health: Vital Connections

Farming sits at the heart of human and planetary health, it is through awareness, education and support that Farmers Footprint Australia is looking to help support Australia’s transition to regenerative farming.

ARCHIVE | David Leon: Farmer’s Footprints

In honour of this week’s focus on regenerative agriculture and the chat with Blair Beattie from Farmer’s Footprint Australia, I am posting a throwback episode with David Leon from Farmer’s Footprint in the United States. Like in Australia, Farmers Footprint is an organisation focused on accelerating the universal adoption of regenerative land management for the health of people and the planet (as the two are inextricably linked). In this episode, David Leon, the CEO joins me to discuss the importance of their mission, how they are doing it and how we can get involved.

Regenerative Agriculture: Blair Beattie Insights

Farmer’s Footprint is a national not-for-profit organisation giving voice to Australia’s regenerative food story. It promotes the widespread use of regenerative agriculture to improve soil, human, and environmental health.

My guest today is the Managing Director or CEO of Farmer’s Footprint Australia, which just started a few months ago, Blair Beattie. It’s a wonderful conversation. At the end of the conversation, I’ll share with you the really fantastic short six-minute video that Farmer’s Footprint has produced. And it is a truly inspiring video with many guests, many farmers on there that have been guests on this podcast.

Functional Movement & Carnivore Diet with Aaron McKenzie

Have your ever felt overwhelmed by exercise? What is good exercise? What are the benefits of exercise? Perhaps you don’t know what type of exercise there is? Or where should you begin? 

My guest today, Aaron McKenzie from Origin of Energy, brings a simple and achievable message of regenerative health. Aaron has trained people from elite athletes to the elderly. I have trained with him over the years, and he introduced me to functional movement, which informs every workout I do.

Revitalising Land through Farmer-Managed Natural Regeneration

There is so much hope in nature. We need to nurture it more, get off our devices and connect with the world around us

Enabling Nature, Restoring Hope 🌳

Soil is integral to farming; we need it for food, animals, and human life. But did you know that it takes nature 500 years to grow 1 inch or 2.5cm of soil on a well-managed regenerative farm, that can occur in 3 to 5 years?

One reason the 21st century should be the century of the revered farmer. Over the last few years, I have been honoured to have such legends as Tony Rinaudo, Terry McCosker, RCS Team, Farmer’s Footprint, Charlie Arnott, Charles Massey, and so many more.

A continual theme is rather than an adversarial relationship with nature; we need to have a supportive one. As Allan Savory said, “don’t blame the resource; blame how it’s managed”

Tony Rinaudo: Restoring Hope by Restoring Landscape

Tony Rinaudo is World Vision’s Natural Resources Management Specialist, better known as “The Forest Maker”.

He is an environmental hero, having made a positive impact on food security, environmental sustainability and resilience for thousands of vulnerable communities around the world.
