Land, like love is not meant to be owned, it's meant to be shared. Beautiful words from Sea Matias, who tells us food is dignity and love.

"Farmers can make magic possible, even with just a seed.” Stephanie Hsu learned on a small regenerative farm that abundance isn’t about how much money you have; it’s about reciprocity.

Biggest barriers to farming = access to land and capital. Farmers describe how, more than just labeling food as "regenerative," they want to build products that people believe in. #ClimateWeekNYC

"We’ve optimized for cheap calories. But regenerative ag unlocks real value." Only 7% of people know what "regenerative" means, yet 74% want food that makes them healthier. Healthy soil = healthy people + healthy planet. #ClimateWeekNYC
