One key point that YOU, our customers, as well as all customers of all farms practicing Regenerative Farming need to know is the tremendous impact you are making in truly changing our food system.
Never has there been more awareness that food can be produced in a manner that is both healthy for the people who consume it and the land where it was raised.
Never. Period.
In case you missed it, in 2020 Netflix released the film “Kiss the Ground” that awakened millions of people to the many benefits of regenerative agriculture.
While the film featured prominent celebrities, I was most proud to see two of my farm friends, Gabe Brown and Ray Archuleta, interviewed extensively throughout the film.
Both Gabe and Ray have visited our farm and we continue to work alongside them to promote regenerative farming principles to the larger agriculture community and beyond.
In fact, food companies are now turning to regenerative farmers who are leading this movement to get up-to-speed on this rapidly emerging movement.
Companies like General Mills, Amazon Fresh, Whole Foods, and others are quickly adopting a path to prioritize both education and products that are produced regeneratively.
As more "voices" rise, more and more consumers are beginning to understand that the benefits of true regenerative farming go far beyond that of the impacts of organic practices.
This is very positive news for those of us who wish to see meaningful change in our food system, and this is where I come back to you.
While Seven Sons, our friends Gabe and Ray, and other farms across the country are busy producing and educating, it's CONSUMERS who are also contributing to this momentum.
So, on behalf of all of us, we thank you for your trust and your support of our farms, our beliefs, and the food we produce.
If you'd like to get a better idea of the movement you're a part of, I’d highly encourage you to watch the Netflix film Kiss the Ground…
In doing so, you'll gain a confident understanding of the far-reaching impacts of regenerative farming.
