Seeing Green: Solutions for Our Daily Lives

Spotlight: Christy Dawn -- Regenerating Fashion from Farm-to-Closet


Listen Later

Meet Christy Dawn... a fashion brand redefining what clothing can do for people and the planet and the Seeing Green Solutionist of the Day for October 22.

In this Spotlight episode we turn to apparel, one of the most environmentally damaging industries on Earth yet one of the most powerful levers for restoration when reimagined through a regenerative lens. Christy Dawn was founded on a bold premise: fashion should not simply minimize harm but actively heal ecosystems and empower the communities at its foundation.

From flowing dresses and alpaca knits to timeless everyday essentials, every Christy Dawn garment begins with the Earth — grown through regenerative farming practices that rebuild soil health, increase biodiversity and sequester carbon. Their Farm-to-Closet initiative in India transformed depleted land into thriving farmland using indigenous seeds and natural farming practices while their regenerative alpaca program in Peru is restoring grasslands and protecting endangered ecosystems through responsible grazing.

Christy Dawn goes beyond sustainable materials by investing directly in land, farmers and artisans, paying fair wages and reviving traditional craftsmanship while building long-term ecological partnerships rooted in reciprocity rather than extraction.

We explore how Christy Dawn is pioneering a new model for fashion, one where clothing is not the end product of an industry but the outcome of a relationship between people and the planet.

Christy Dawn is not just making garments. They are proving that fashion can be a force for regeneration.
