Don’t Be Fooled: Know Your Farmer, Know the Ecosystem on Your Plate - Your Gut Will Thank You - with Nick Holliday
Less than a year ago, I didn't even know what "organic" really meant — let alone anything about regenerative farming. Today, passionate farmer Nick Holliday from Belvedere Farm joins me to share what regenerative agriculture and agroecology (that is: farming with nature, not against it) actually look like in practice, which labels to look for when buying good quality produce, and how to connect with your local farmer. Nick has a gift for making it all click, and this episode is seriously eye-opening — because the health of the animals and the land they're raised on doesn't just end up on our plates. It ends up in our guts.
