Regenerative farming - why do it?

Organic almond farmer in Palestine

Regenerative farming can save the earth. Global climate change is a huge issue on our planet. Converting even a third of all crops and pastures to regenerative carbon farming practices can reduce atmospheric carbon to a sustainable level last seen in the pre-industrial age. Regenerative agriculture has the potential to reverse climate change!

For four years, you have supported organic and regenerative practices by Palestinian farmers. CORE projects have controlled almond pests, and distributed beehives and superior ancient seeds to farmers. PFTA has traditional farmers who model regenerative methods like grazing sheep and goats in their fields instead of tilling. They model cover cropping, using organic mulch, composting, and intercropping olive trees with other crops like legumes.

Stay tuned here for the main regenerative agriculture methods for our farmers (and home gardeners) to use to create healthy soils and sequester carbon. They (and you) can contribute to a sustainable food system and lower the impacts of climate change!
