I attended a lecture led by an NRCS agent here in Texas, and he shared his insight into why “regenerative” has gained so much traction as a term. Each five year grant cycle they update their vernacular, five years prior it was all about “soil health”. I found that interesting because it provided a focal point.

How do we obtain soil health? Native plants, permaculture, prescribed burns. Same results, similar practices. Thank you for sharing your perspective on this topic, it’s important as many people as possible are thinking and sharing about it.

So cool to hear this! I think regenerative practices have potential to bring forth a positive change, and give the right motivation to explore new and old strategies to tending the land.
