Get ready to be inspired, educated, mortified, but motivated to take action. Whether you're a farmer, an environmental enthusiast, or you simply love food and care about this planet we call home, this episode is for you. In this episode of The NatLifePod I’m with the lovely Jess Abbis who’s mission is to unite, inspire and accelerate the movement towards regeneration as a means to restore soil, human, and planetary health. Having listened to the needs of the UK regenerative movement, Jess and her cofounders transitioned from Farmers Footprint UK and are now working under the name of the foundational programme, 'The Nest', a non-profit creative agency in service and support of agro ecological producers to sell and market their products to local, regional consumers. Jess shares her experience and insights on sustainable farming, organic farming vs regenerative practices, and the importance of reconnecting with community. We discuss how creating direct relationships between our local farmers and us consumers can foster a sense of community, promote transparency in the food system, help protect the environment, promote biodiversity, ensure food security, and create more resilient and prosperous communities for present and future generations.
