“We can be the regeneration generation, and our food system is the mechanism to do that..” —Ryland Engelhart

 

The world is changing. The way we live, the way we work, the way we interact with each other and with the world around us - it's all changing. And we are the generation that is leading this change.

 

We are the generation that is breaking down barriers and opening up new possibilities. We are the generation that is using our creativity and our passion to build a better future. We are the generation that can help our planet heal. We are the regeneration generation! 

 

And that starts with transforming our food system. The food industry has been one of the biggest contributors to our planet’s deteriorating condition— but we can change all that. And that change is happening right now! 

 

Kiss The Ground, is a documentary that provides a clear picture of how big our impact is on our environment and reveals a sound and practical solution to climate change. Co-founded by Ryland Engelhart, its nonprofit partner, Kiss The Ground is actively leading the citizens of the earth to the possibilities of regeneration. 

 

Tune in to this week’s episode as Justine and Ryland discuss how we can turn food into a transformational experience, how culture and emotions are inseparable aspects of food, what it means to be committed but not attached, how knowing our farmers can help us get a wider perspective on regeneration, and how we can become better stewards of the earth.
