Cook Your Way to an Economy of Peace with Cate Havstad-Casad

Cate Havstad-Casad is redefining what it means to be a holistic entrepreneur. Using her lens of holism and looking at how to scale businesses while still keeping in mind natural limits of growth, she has built Havstad Hat Co and Range Revolutions and Casad Family Farms in conjunction with her husband, Chris. She is as passionate about soil as she is about her community and as passionate about her community as she is about changing the world. In this episode we talk about her incredible closed loop farm, the revolution she is building in the fashion world with Range Revolution, and her new venture building a co-op in Central Oregon. We also explore water in the West and tease out both bureaucratic and climatic drought and how to build more resilient systems in brittle environments. In this reverse interview, we delve into Cate’s heritage and what makes her tick in the latter half of the show - exploring how we inherit intergenerational strengths and how we can consider passing those along to our kids.&nbsp;Find Cate:Instagram: @rangerevolution, @casadfamilyfarms, @havstadhatco&nbsp;YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@casadfamilyfarmsTimestamps:00:07:10: Cate + Kate Begin: Defining a Revolution00:11:37: Economics of Peace&nbsp;00:16:33: Closed loop systems and Casad Family Farms00:37:13: Drought&nbsp;01:03:36: Range Revolution and regenerative leather&nbsp;01:27:29: Economies of scale&nbsp;01:39:51: Our heritage is a part of what drives us&nbsp;01:49:54: Our parents, becoming parentsResourcesSchumacher Center: An Economics of PeaceMegan French of Boundless FarmsteadBooks:Wendell Berry on Building an Economics of PeaceFor the Love of Soil by Nicole MastersListening:Long Promised Road by the Beach BoysCurrent Discounts for MBS listeners:15% off Farm True ghee and body care products using code: KATEKAV1520% off Home of Wool using code KATEKAVANAUGH for 10% off15% off Bon Charge blue light blocking gear using code: MINDBODYSOIL15Join the Ground Work Collective:Find a Farm: nearhome.groundworkcollective.comFind Kate: @kate_kavanaughMore: groundworkcollective.comPodcast disclaimer can be found by visiting: <a...
