Episode 17 - Nov. 7, 2025
from Regenerative Farming News · host Heather Heinrichs
In this episode, I share what I learned from attending a Holistic Management Canada weekend course on Personal Leadership with author and speaker David Irvine. We explore what it means to lead authentically—on the farm, in our families, and in our communities—and how honesty, vulnerability, and connection can make us better farmers and better people.I also dive into the launch of Johnston’s Regenerative, a Prairie ag company bridging conventional and regenerative systems. While I applaud their effort to make the transition easier for farmers, I remind listeners that the real power of regeneration belongs to the land—and to farmers themselves.In my Editorial segment, I compare soil health to a muscle—it weakens when we rely too much on chemicals, but grows stronger when we let biology and diversity do the work. And I share a little story about selling my truck to a couple of regenerative ranchers, which gave me hope that this movement is spreading faster than we realize.This episode is all about encouragement—being real, building trust, and remembering that each of us has the power to make a difference for the land, our communities, and the future of farming.
