Can we really eat our way to reverse global warming?
As a regenerative food business, we connect farmers and growers who work in earth-friendly ways, directly with the end consumers - our lovely customers. And if they love what they're eating and start asking - we have a conversation about the bigger stuff. Whether carnivore, vegetarian or vegan - we're only as healthy as the soil we farm on. Mono-cropping vegetables and tractor-kill are as devastating to our planet as feed-lot farming. Both are terrible.
Climate Beef
As a regenerative street-food operator - we see our role as enabling regenerative farmers and growers to do what they do and do more of it while making a living and a net-positive impact on climate.
From Hipster Cows to Prime Steaks: Unravelling the Grass-Fed Beef Debate
From Hipster Cows to Prime Steaks: Unravelling the Grass-Fed Beef Debate"
There's a rumble in the pasture, and it's not just from the cows. The debate around grass-fed versus grain-fed beef has been sizzling for a while now, creating distinct camps on both sides of the dinner table. But let’s be honest: How many of us truly understand the meat of the matter? Why isn’t all beef just grass-fed, given it sounds so...natural?

Regeneration: Ending the Climate Crisis in One Generation
The NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
A radically new understanding of and practical approach to climate change by noted environmentalist and creator of Drawdown, Paul Hawken
The dangers of climate change and a warming world have been in the public eye for fifty years. For three decades, scientists and the United Nations have urged us to address future existential threats. In Regeneration Paul Hawken has flipped the narrative, bringing people back into the conversation by demonstrating that addressing current human needs rather than future threats is the only path to solving the climate crisis.
From land to ocean, food to industries - Regeneration proposes an extensive menu of actions that collectively can reverse the overheating and degradation of our planet. The solutions, techniques, and practices range from solar power, electric vehicles, and tree planting to bioregions, azolla fern and forest farms; they are all doable, science-based, and comprise a precise and unequivocal course of action.
Whether you are an individual, community focused or a national government, Regeneration is a call to arms to mobilise and create a better future for ourselves on this planet. -
Defending Beef.
Hahn Niman dispels popular myths about how eating beef is bad for our bodies and the planet. The impact of grazing can be either negative or positive, depending on how livestock are managed. In fact, with proper oversight, livestock can play an essential role in maintaining grassland ecosystems by performing the same functions as the natural herbivores that once roamed and grazed there. Grounded in empirical scientific data and citing examples of regenerative agriculture from around the world, she illustrates how cattle can help build carbon-sequestering soils to mitigate climate change, enhance biodiversity, prevent desertification and provide essential nutrition.
