#117. Poison to Paella | Tim Fijal

Rice is a staple ingredient in every household kitchen; however, its convenience comes at a significant cost to our planet. Over 90% of the world’s rice is grown in Asia, where rice-paddy farmers heavily rely on toxic chemicals to combat pests. It’s time to address this widespread chemical dependence that is poisoning our land and food.Join Belinda Sircombe-Jellett in conversation with regenerative farmer and environmentalist Tim Fijal as they explore his mission to transform agrochemical use into regenerative farming practices in Bali. They’ll discuss the Astungkara Way, a local-to-global movement founded by Tim to build healthier soils and ecosystems by reconnecting people with nature and the origins of their food.Thanks for tuning in to the ELEVATE Podcast.Sharing their lives, to elevate yours.Please subscribe, rate, and share if this episode moved you.Stay connected and explore more at www.elevationbarn.comFollow us on Instagram: @elevationbarn Questions?
