What is Regenerative Agriculture?

Regenerative agriculture is more than a label. It’s a way of farming that heals the land in order to produce the most nutrient-dense food. In comparison to modern industrial practices, regenerative farming methods differ by focusing on rebuilding soil health, restoring biodiversity, and strengthening the natural cycles that sustain and regenerate life.

A Holistic Approach

Farmers who follow regenerative methods focus on techniques that improve the land, such as:

Rotational Grazing: Moving livestock in planned patterns to prevent overgrazing, naturally fertilize soil, and rebuild pastures.

Cover Cropping: Planting crops year-round to protect and nourish the soil, prevent erosion, and retain water.

Reduced/Zero Tillage: Minimizing soil disruption preserves carbon, supports microorganisms, and improves overall soil structure.

Agroforestry & Polyculture: Integrating trees, crops, and animals together to enhance biodiversity and ecosystem resilience.

Core Practices

Unlike industrial or even certified organic methods, regenerative agriculture doesn’t stop at doing less harm. It actively restores the land, sequesters carbon, and strengthens ecosystems.

We recognize that transitioning to these methods can be costly and time-consuming for farmers. That’s why consumer support is crucial: every purchase of regenerative products helps farmers move toward a system that benefits the land, their livestock, their livelihoods, and your food.

Why It Matters

Learn, choose, and share. Together, we can regenerate America’s farmland — one acre at a time.
