Gabe Brown – heal your soil and your soul
About this episode
<p>Gabe Brown, regenerative farming legend and pioneer, speaks to Jez Fredenburgh about the power of regenerative farming to heal your soil and your soul. After hail and drought destroyed his crops four years in a row, Gabe decided to farm differently. He went on a huge learning curve, changing his mindset entirely, and getting to know his farm in a way he never had before – as an ecosystem reliant on fundamental, universal ecological principles, rather than a "chemistry set". He says he's happier as a result, produces more food, and turns a better profit.</p><p>Gabe's book, Dirt to Soil, about his journey to regenerative farming, has become a staple for anyone wanting to move in this direction. He now travels the world advising on regen farming, and has been named one of the 25 most influential agricultural leaders in the United States. He farms at Brown’s Ranch, a diversified 5,000 acre farm in North Dakota, with his wife Shelly and son Paul.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/2206410/fan_mail/new">Message us</a></p>
