What type of agriculture is needed to produce healthy nourishing food to feed a growing population?
We need proven technologies to produce better food and protect soil and water and support our communities. Fortunately, we already have such a technology: it’s called organic farming. It’s time to return to whole farm-based productivity, which works with the health of everything—soil, environment, human beings, and community. Productivity arises from the sacred relationship between people, plants, and place. Productivity is a consequence of ecological action collaborating with nature; it cannot be sustained by fossil fuel based technologies. It’s about fostering health and building food systems based on restoring both biological and cultural communities.
