Joining us today is regenerative farmer Amy O'Brien. Amy's journey began in November 2019 when her family’s conventional farm was ravaged by the Black Summer Fires. Rather than being defeated by this tragedy, Amy and her partner embarked on an inspiring quest for change. Going against the advice of conventional farmers, they have embraced regenerative practices to bring this farm back to life in the short space of a few years.

Amy's story is a testament to resilience and innovation. Recognizing the challenges brought on by climate change, her dream is for the farmland to be altered from a monoculture of beef cattle to an abundant ecosystem that will sustain their family and the community.

What sets Amy apart from other regenerative farmers is her passion and expertise in the area of food science. It was wonderful to get her insights on why regenerative agriculture is important to creating a thriving and vibrant world.
