Asher Wright, Farm Director at Caney Fork Farms, joins us to explore how regenerative agriculture is being tested—and proven—in real time in rural Tennessee. Backed by Vice President Al Gore and rooted in decades of soil health practice, Caney Fork Farms offers a living model for climate-smart, community-driven food systems.

Asher shares the realities of building a financially viable regenerative farm: from sliding-scale CSA shares and pasture-raised meats to new grain cleaning infrastructure and public-private insurance barriers. We discuss what it takes to scale regeneration—not just in practice, but in economics, labor, and policy.
