How do we weave together the four pillars of people, landscape, economy – and spirit – into a working system that allows farmers and landowners to work with the land to grow the food humanity needs while healing the broken earth? With Caroline Grindrod of Roots of Nature, a regenerative agriculture consultancy that works on all scales at all levels, from single small farms to large-scale multinationals
Caroline Grindrod is a consultant and coach in regenerative systems and leadership. Along with a background in environmental conservation and upland land management, holistic management and experience in designing sustainable and regenerative food businesses, Caroline has a lifelong passion for personal development, wild spaces and a growing interest in regenerative leadership.
She draws upon that diverse range of skills and experience to offer an ever-evolving and truly unique approach to working with ‘keystone’ people in food and farming.
Our climate is changing month on month, year on year. Growing food has always been precarious, but never more so than now. Our global food system lacks resilience, and people are starving in greater numbers than ever. If we believe the answer is not in yet more chemical inputs or in growing food in vats that distance people ever more from the heart of the land, how can we foster resilient systems that enable people to heal our damaged landscapes while still growing good, nutritious, health-full food.
