In this podcast Don Ruzicka and I chat about the past, present and future of regenerative agriculture, the missing connection to the land that plagues our culture, the red herring of carbon credits, and much more. 
 Don and his wife Marie were early adopters of Holistic Management and Organic agriculture. Over the course of 25 years they transformed their 640 acre farm from a debt ladened degenerative farm to a prosperous regenerative one. Don is now retired. He has been my mentor, friend and hero for almost 10 years. ▶️ My farm https://www.coenfarm.ca

Stefan Sobkowiak operates a 12 acre farm of which 6-acres are in a permaculture orchard at Miracle Farms in Quebec. Sobkowiak originally bought the farm as a conventional 12 acre 4,000 tree monoculture apple orchard and immediately transitioned it to organic, but he quickly realized that an organic monoculture merely substitutes inputs from the conventional model. The alternative he created is a diverse polyculture that produces a wide variety of different fruits, berries and perennial herbs for u-pick membership customers. Sobkowiak is also an avid teacher, having taught at the university level and now popularly, through his Permaculture Orchard video, his online virtual orchard tour and his online pruning course.
