Ep. 36 - A Middle America Miracle - Revitalizing Small Towns with Regenerative Farming. Will Harris. White Oak Pastures.

On this episode we are grateful to have Will Harris. Will is a 6th generation South Georgian farmer, whose farm, White Oak Pastures, was established in 1866. Their farm in Bluffton, GA, moved from a factory farm in 1995 to now allow livestock to express their instinctive behavior, mitigate climate change, rebuild healthy soil, and revitalize the backbone of America. Will has been interviewed on Rogan, ABC, NBC, the BBC, NPR, Forbes, to name a few and has just written a book "A Bold Return to Giving a Damn". As Will has said, building relationships with the people growing your food is the only way that you can really know what you are buying. #eatbetterfoodtoday #longevity #health #foodismedicine #seasonalshopping  Please visit our website https://eatbetterfoodtoday.com for this week's recipe, interviews, books, research, videos.
