Today we talk about regenerative agriculture with Travis Krause, the owner of Parker Creek Ranch and founder of The Pastoralist blog.

We learn the difference between the common or ‘linear’ agriculture, and regenerative agriculture which uses system thinking and holistic approach to growing food.

Travis’s ranch dates back to the 19th century, and we share some exciting stories from the history of Texas, and history of cattle ranches.

Travis talks about the business side of local farming, how to get started, and how to raise the awareness of consumers about the local farms.

Farmers have earned a spotlight in the Covid-19 pandemic, and the goal for all of us is to support local farms and build better connections with the food we are eating.

“If I can have a face to face conversation with a consumer about what we do on the farm, I bet they would buy my food.” – Travis Krause
