A Good Conversation About Regeneration #11

Join us every Monday 3:30am (CET), 2:30am (GMT) for a discussion about all things regeneration/regenerative - whether farming / business / society / culture / money!

Each week, we’ll explore a different theme, in discussion with you, as we try to understand, make sense of and explore the evolving regenerative movement.

This time we talked about the dangers of (not) having a definition of regeneration. About having a clearly defined goal or just a "vague" idea and taking small steps toward it (the process). What does this mean for consumers and farmers? How does the story continue? It certainly is about relations.

If you’re interested in regenerative ideas and principles, or are working in regeneration (whether on a farm or not!), or have heard about it and are curious, then we’re for you!

Join us each Monday afternoon for conversation, questions and Anglo-Dutch good times (more on that later!).

A Good Conversation About Regeneration #12

Nothing wakes you up quite like death.

For Sean O'Farrell, organic farmer from Ireland, killing all the earthworms kick started his own journey to organic farming.

This week on A Good Conversation with Jaap Fris, Niels Moshagen and others we talked about shifting the minds of conventional farmers to regenerative practises.

Change is hard. We're hardwired to hold on.

But, as with Sean, death is a good start point. Letting go of old ideas, of old practises, is like mourning. We're likely very invested (financially, emotionally, mentally) in our old ways of thinking and doing. This investment makes change hard. We need to mourn the old.

That's one way, anyway.

We also talk about top down vs bottom up change, about being told what you can't do vs celebrating new things you might want to do instead.
Shifting mindsets, behaviours and practises to more regenerative ideas is a big task, touching on all these ideas and more.

If you’re interested in regenerative ideas and principles, or are working in regeneration (whether on a farm or not!), or have heard about it and are curious, then we’re for you!
