A HIGHLY ENGAGING VIRTUAL EVENT SERIES

Regenerative Earth Summit

SESSION 2

Dec 1 & 2, 10am-2pm MT

"Though I am gone, I urge you to answer the highest calling of your heart and stand up for what you truly believe."

– John Lewis

ABOUT THE SUMMIT

The Regenerative Earth Summit 4 event series is accelerating the conversation from regenerative learning to regenerative action—from the why to the how.  We are offering the Summit as an opportunity for you to engage with other regenerative leaders in a creational effort, focused on addressing key obstacles to regenerative implementation.  

Our goal, through this 4-part series of content and collaboration, is to collectively clarify these obstacles and to employ our community’s unique genius in order to accelerate working solutions that drive real-world results.  

The second in the series, December 1 and 2, 2020, entitled Farm to Brand, will focus on the efforts, challenges, and collaborative opportunities that abound for farms and brands to drive greater implementation of regenerative production across their organizations. We'll address Metrics, Quantifying Impact, Farm - Brand Partnership, Regenerative Transitions and more! 

WHY THIS SUMMIT?

The Regenerative Earth Summit offers a unique opportunity to not only learn more about the implementation of regenerative principles in the business community, but to help create solutions to the current industry-wide bottlenecks that restrict broader adoption.  Through inspiring keynote content and panel discussions, we’ll seed the framework and set the stage for multi-stakeholder discussions that lead to profound insights and workable solutions in the name of a brighter agricultural future.  These working groups will focus on finance, supply chain, regulatory, farming, technology, marketing and much more.  This is an opportunity to connect with other industry leaders, to create collaborative solutions and to help steer the next step in the regenerative evolution!

WHO's COMING?

The Regenerative Earth Summit convenes visionary leaders from the food and fashion industries, farmers, ranchers, entrepreneurs, investors, activists, and academics working collaboratively to tackle the audacious vision of shifting how agriculture is practiced. With mindfulness practice, interactive working sessions, Regenerative Slams, and panel conversations, colleagues will generate ideas and actionable steps to change the status quo and bring new vigor and rigor to sourcing and partnerships across sectors.  By working collaboratively across and within industry sectors, we accelerate the systems change we need to see in a regenerative future.

If you are bold, impassioned catalyst for change — this event welcomes YOU.

Aprés Networking Meet & Greet

“The insights we gained from the 2019 Regenerative Earth Summit inspired Nature's Crops to work with our grower partners to transition our focus from sustainable to regenerative practices for all our specialty crop contract production. Collectively this is about 10,000 acres of production, but as these practices become applied to the grower’s overall acreage, the total impact could well be in excess of 100,000 acres.”

– Andrew Hebard, President & CEO of Natures Crops International
