#REGENERATE 2018 is a wrap but we're just getting started!

We were so pleased with the turnout at this year's conference, REGENERATE, that we were lucky enough to co-host with the Quivira Coalition and American Grassfed Association in Albuquerque, NM Oct 31-Nov 2, 2018. We had a sold-out, 600+ crowd buzzing with energy and eagerness joining together on this mission to regenerate land by changing farming and ranching practices. Of particular interest to the Holistic Management crowd were talks by Holistic Management producers and educators Will Harris from White Oak Pastures, Georgia, Jonathan Cobb from Green Fields Farm, Texas, and Deborah Clark from the Birdwell-Clark Ranch, Texas. The Sisters of the Soil panel included Nicole Masters, Betsy Ross, and Christine Su who kept the crowd entertained as they explained how soil functioned and the need for good grazing management to keep soil health active after using soil amendments and innoculants. Our Facilitating Break Out session was a great collaboration with tons of learning, networking, and energizing opportunities. This session did earn the title of Most Rowdy as there was lots of engagement, participation, learning to do by doing, and FUN. Kelly Sidoryk has provided a compilation of Facilitation Tips and more info on the True Colors personality style. Please feel free to reach out to her if you have any questions or comments. In addition, our Regenerative Grazing Workshop was sold out and highlighted the work of the folks at Green Fields Farm as well as Louis Martin of Round River Resource Management and a host of Certified Educators including Ben Bartlett, Cindy Dvergsten, Kirk Gadzia, Wayne Knight, Roland Kroos, Guy Glosson, and Brian Luce. Thank you to all the attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, donors, speakers, volunteers, and the staff at Hotel Albuquerque for making it such an amazing experience!
