The lived experiences of regenerative farmers detail the motivation, challenges, opportunities, and lessons that have sustained their regenerative practices, including their vision for their communities. Regenerative farmers have a passion for growing healthy food and resilient communities. They influence their community to re-imagine their collective future together. 

Our choices impact our health, community, farmers’ livelihoods, and the planet. Therefore becoming receptive to and valuing the voices of small-scale regenerative farmers could positively impact current and future food security. More importantly, we must empower each other to become change agents and save our future.

Join us in understanding the experiences, values, and impacts of small-scale regenerative farmers by listening to the stories of Ohio-based regenerative farmers. Farmers’ narratives https://u.osu.edu/regenerativechampions/
