While conventional agriculture has been the norm for years, regenerative agriculture offers a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly alternative that is distinct in its farming practices. Unlike conventional farming, which typically requires the use of artificial fertilisers and chemical herbicides and pesticides, regenerative farming focuses on building healthy soil, promoting biodiversity, and integrating livestock and crops in a way that supports a more natural ecological balance.

It sounds like paradise. And it is. However, shifting to regenerative farming, away from convention, is not without its challenges. The transition requires a commitment to changing the farming system while overcoming significant economic pressures. Growing food without the use of artificial fertilisers and chemical sprays is harder. Additionally, the soil must overcome its dependance on these artificial stimulants, which like any rehab, takes time. Despite the challenges, regenerative farming offers the promise of better productivity through improved soil biology and water carrying ability. 

By supporting regenerative farming practices, we can make a positive impact on the environment, improve the health of the soil, and support local farmers who are committed to a more sustainable future. This is the purpose of Earth First.
