What is regenerative agriculture?Updated 2 years ago
There are three types of agriculture. Degenerative farming harms the planet and leaves the land worse than we found it. Sustainable agriculture does no harm, leaving the land the same as we found it. Regenerative agriculture improves the land, leaving it better than we found it. For instance, strategic grazing of ruminants (such as cows and bison) can turn desert into grassland. The animals eat the tall dead grass that would otherwise fall over and shade out new growth, and they leave behind manure which acts as a fertilizer. Millions of acres of grassland have been restored with this method! Learn more at the Savory Institute’s website or by watching Alan Savory’s mind-blowing Ted Talk. Serenity Kids is proud to source meat from farmers that are improving the environment by practicing these methods. How cool is it that what is good for your baby is also good for animals, farmers, and the planet!
