Speaking Regeneratively

From the beginning of time

our job was to be

Stewards of the land,

animals and sea

​

We were given a mandate

to care for the earth

Mother Nature she's sometimes called

and all of her worth

​

The soil we were given

so plentiful and rich

of nutrients and minerals

that encompassed every inch

​

The benefits of this soil

none of which you could compare

the well-being of humans and animals alike,

the waters and the air

​

It all worked together

it was the perfect plan

Until we thought we'd do it better ourselves

was when the problems all began

​

Instead of nature dictating

the next steps we need to take

We applied chemicals, treatments and tilled the land

which turns out is a mistake

​

We somehow became impatient

needing our yield so quick

and in our quest to save us time

It's actually made us sick

​

For what was once filled with carbon,

nitrogen and phosphorus

is now being depleted

of all it has to offer us

​

Who would have thought

the result of this would be

when you deplete the soil of nutrients

it in turn depletes you and me

​

The good news is, out there right now

are people like you and me

that are working hard to restore that soil

and all it's meant to be

​

We can benefit our climate,

the earth and all living things

by choosing regenerative farming

for the health to all it brings

​

To pretend we don't see need for change

surely is a crime

(regeneratively speaking) we're bettering our world

supporting one farm at a time.
