The book provides countless rich examples of innovative farmers who found paths forward through regenerative agriculture practices to prolong the future of our food supply, our health and our planet. A clarion call for the global transformation of agriculture. Charles Massey also appears in useful YouTube lectures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1605027872514-DXB619ZV9PIOFSVD4YCC/kissthegroundbook.jpg Learning Center - Kiss the Ground (2017, Josh Tickell, US) This book explains the practical steps we all must take to restore the health of the planet, and provides us with practical regenerative steps to reverse climate change.

Our lives depend on the soil. Gabe, through his experience, brings to life the five tenets or principals he, and all of us, should abide by to grow nutrient-rich top soil with healthy water-capture capabilities. Those tenets which are expressed in his book are; limited disturbance (no till, no chemicals), Armor on the Soil (always covered to protect soil biology from weather and erosion), plant diversity (each species brings microbial diversity and has a role in maintaining soil health), living roots (always, to maintain soil health), and integrating animals (to stimulate biology through grazing and nutrient cycling). Dirt to Soil is a must read for anyone serious about regenerative agriculture. Gabe Brown also has a website at BrownRanch.us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1604421366547-GSVBDXN233BZ1GAVIOJK/wildingbook91x98opf3VL.jpg Learning Center - Wilding (2018, Isabella Tree, UK). This is a book about returning a 3,500-acre British farm back to nature and ‘wilding’ it, about fixing broken and deforested, exhausted land and inviting fauna to return. It is a testament to how if you throw such a party, nature will come with all its richness to our farmed landscapes, how we can stop and reverse the inexorable decline of nature that has been accelerating in the last half century. It describes how we can begin the process of wildlife and farm restoration, if only we humans get out of the way. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1604420292539-RH0BUT78YYQZ9FK0CDW8/fortheloveofsoil_9780578536729_p0_v2_s1200x630.jpg Learning Center - For The Love of Soil (2019, Nicole Masters, Australia) A study of the complex world of soil / land stewardship. This book is educational and thought-provoking at the level of understanding mineral and biology imbalances in the soil. Nicole Masters offers a sensible discussion of the critical issue of healthy soils to produce nutrient-dense food. It is a well-referenced, entertaining guide to what we CAN do. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1614875902120-RPQSRM9GY32CUV0H7IRM/drawdown_larger.jpg Learning Center - Drawdown (2017, Paul Hawken, US) Project Drawdown released its inaugural body of work on climate solutions as the New York Times bestselling book Drawdown. It has become a seminal text on climate solutions, drawing on the practices and technologies that will reverse the buildup of atmospheric carbon by mid-century. Drawdown has influenced university curricula, city climate plans, business commitments, community action and philanthropy. This website provides a supplemental list of references used in development of the book. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1627685315585-PK3M2M49REYMLZO32T0Z/fantasticfungicover_small.jpg Learning Center - Fantastic Fungi Fantastic Fungi is a descriptive journey about the mysterious world of fungi and their power to contribute to the regeneration of life on Earth that began 3.5 billion years ago. Imagine an organism that feeds you, heals you, reveals secrets of the universe and could help save the planet. You'll see it through the eyes of mycologists, like renowned Paul Stamets, about the unlimited potential of fungi in the field of agriculture - food, medicine, bioremediation and health. Fantastic Fungi was the number one documentary on Apple TV, 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, and is readily accessible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1604421259647-Y1JMPQ87RDL224PNOZYQ/hiddenlifeoftrees81eXIDPb8yL.jpg Learning Center - The Hidden Life of Trees (2017, Peter Wohlleben, Germany). Once you read this book, forests will become magic places for you. Trees communicate; through electrical impulses, smell and taste. And they’re social and they care for each other. They are also connected through root systems and the fungal wood-wide-web that shares information and nutrients between them underground. It takes a forest and social connection for trees to live long healthy lives. Perhaps the saddest plants are the isolated or mono-culturally grown trees which are silent and have lost their ability to communicate, feed and protect each other. Perhaps we can learn from the forests and breed a little more wildness back into our maintenance and relationships with trees. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1604420773406-H2VY6EE1LHUY4ARL8WE8/the-hidden-half-of-nature-david-r-montgomery-9780393244403.jpg Learning Center - The Hidden Half of Nature (2016, David Montgomery and Anne Biklé, US) This tells us that the good health of homo sapiens and plants depends on microbes in the soil. Beneath our feet, beneficial microbes and plant roots constantly exchange a vast array of essential nutritional compounds. This exchange between plants and the teaming microbial and fungal population is the soils botanical life’s master strategy for defense and health, of the plants and ultimately ours. Analogously, they discover (through Anne’s cancer) the importance of the human microbiome in our gut which enables our immune systems to metabolize and regulate essential compounds. When our microbiome goes awry or gets imbalanced through diet or lack of nutrition, so does our health and well-being. We are what our microbes eat. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1604421524787-MD9JZ4G8ZELSYFH9JWI1/organicgardenersguides.jpg Learning Center - The Organic Gardener's Guide (2010-2013, Jeff Lowenfels & Wayne Lewis, US). Teaming with Microbes Teaming with Fungi Teaming with Nutrients These three books are a guide to the soil microbiome; the vital relationship bacteria and mycorrhizal fungi play in freeing up and bringing essential nutrients to the plants we grow and that feed us. Every plant in garden, farm or forest forms a relationship with bacteria and almost all with fungi. Most plants would not exist without their fungal partners. None would exist without the bacteria in the soil just as we cannot exist without the microbiome in our gut. Understanding this relationship, gardeners and farmers will build the better microbe-laden soils which are vital to production of nutrient-rich foods and strong plants with natural pathogen resistance. These books explain in clear language how the soil microbiome and mycorrhizae interact with plants and how to support and use what is the foundation of our food web. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1604421614563-XQZWYL1EVGTQHVOOQI5D/MCCP3-scaled.jpg Learning Center - Managing Cover Crops Profitably (2007, Sustainable Agricultural Network & Andy Clark, US) Farmers and gardeners alike are learning to use cover crops. Most usage is not diverse enough as diversity maximizes nutrients, plant resilience, a healthy ecosystem and soils, but the agricultural world is learning. Cover Crop planting during and between growing seasons slows soil erosion and armors the ground and soil microbiome against heat, frost and pelting rain. They improve the soil with nutrient diversity, improve soil structure by providing biomass, capture and retain moisture, control pests through cover crop diversity and plant strength from proper nutrition, and capture and sequester carbon through photosynthesis. These benefits accrue over the long term as carbon and humic matter build up in the soil. Farmers around the world are starting to understand and now successfully use cover crops for the long-term indispensable benefits they bring. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1604421702574-436HCTUQG20VHFF7PYCD/biggestlittlefarm_netflix.jpg Learning Center - Kiss The Ground On Netflix. With climate change on the front burner these days, Kiss the Ground makes the case that by regenerating the Earth’s soils, we can balance the climate, replenish the water supply, keep species off the extinction list (including ourselves) and better feed the world. The film begins by examining how tilling and the use of pesticides and herbicides have led to soil erosion, and then traces the damage done to our ecology, health and climate. However, there is a solution in regenerative farming, an ethical practice designed to restore degraded lands and facilitate carbon drawdown. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1604421719355-Y6GZ1Y59E8KIZLISQ5B5/biggetlittlerfarm.jpg Learning Center - The Biggest Little Farm A 2018 American documentary film about the life of a Los Angeles couple who buy an abandoned and desertified Apricot Lane Farms in California. They spend the next seven years transforming the arid landscape into a beautiful functional farm and a biodiverse habitat overflowing with flora and fauna. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1604421480330-IZRBJB1GP5H2AFTK5KBF/MycoPlanet-2jkviaf.jpg Learning Center - Mycorrhizal Planet (2017, Michael Phillips, US). The world needs to understand the importance of soil ecology, and specifically the fungal network/plant symbiosis that is in the soil beneath our feet. Most land plants depend on symbiotic fungi in their root systems, - mycorrhizals – to bring them nutrients. No mycorrhizals = many less and unhealthy land plants, thus devastating for land animals including us. They are vital to our ecosystem and little understood until recent years. Mycorrhizal Planet is thoroughly researched and well expressed. It is cutting-edge soil science. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1614876761747-VYIG6VHRY40PWMYZLCS8/jeangiorno_themanwhoplantedtrees.jpg Learning Center - The Man Who Planted Trees (1953, Jean Giono, France) A beautiful short story that sits in the mind for a good long while, like the acorns of the narrative - bearing fruit at some time in the future. We could all take much inspiration from this simple story about one man’s patient, selfless act to rebuild the ecosystem of his little part of southern France. If you can, find the edition illustrated by Harry Brockway’s fantastic woodcuts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1614876193114-M9JQ5RBSA7EQWCX0XEBJ/gates_howtoavoid_2850.jpeg Learning Center - How To Avoid A Climate Disaster (2021, Bill Gates, US) When great minds apply themselves to difficult problems, you know something special’s going to happen. Cochair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Bill Gates approaches the climate emergency with a unique mix of pragmatism and straight thinking. Through simple explanations informed by field experts, he offers a playbook of specific solutions that can guide us through this crucial enterprise. Similar to Project Drawdown, the result is a clear-eyed look at what we can all do in our day-to-day to fix the damage done. https://www.regencampos.es/our-story daily 0.75 2021-03-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1608484850306-U7MW54NFYV3P98VEFNL6/201906_mallorcagroup_0130.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1608135564467-GMTE4H69Q17KQH3RACKU/Ourstory_IMG_6152.jpg Our Story - By 2018, however, we began to see the reciprocal of such monocultural beauty. Through the warm Mediterranean colours we saw with consternation arid and depleted farmland: the result of grain farming since the 1950s. Soils that once were vibrant were depleted of organic matter and nutrients. The clay and silt are compacted hard as rock in summer and suck at your shoes with the winter rains. Wild animals are rare. Insect diversity even rarer after years of chemicals and monoculture. As for birds, we saw only the ubiquitous sparrows and pigeons that could survive industrial farming’s ecosystem degradation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1608133881012-0CEZ1G2E57CX41BT1GTK/OurStory_IMG_2100web.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1608134677298-CD0Y4WFRRCXS6H8X118W/OurStory_IMG_4004.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1608135080470-DGOFI2CP5OU5FBO83667/SAFMed-S%27HORTA-43_-MODELOS-DE-SISTEMAS-SAF-MADURO.jpg Our Story - All of us have become painfully aware that the soil quality and health is vital. If we can fix the soil, nature will lead the project. At Regen Campos, we are prioritizing carbon capture and sequestration through wall-to-wall photosynthesis and adding biomass. This will enrich and vitalize the soil, causing the microbiome and fungal networks to thrive as nature intended. One day this living underground organic factory will be incalculably valuable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1608136089247-HBEIY6T26SCEIIOPYBJZ/OurStory_IMG_4128.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1608135041967-QBCEIGXUHGX2P8DC8XDK/J%26P%26Family_IMG_0982.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1608135145343-J693UM1X9NRSEWK6JW3L/Jose_DSC01526.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8eecf4e29fd25a53d86504/1608135947042-4EYE58DLFKF9JF5FUY81/DSC_5920chicken.jpg Our Story https://www.regencampos.es/the-facts daily 0.75 2021-01-06
