As we come to the end of this series on building strong communities, I wanted to revisit one of the most impactful conversations I had from last season. Last year you may remember that I released an 11 episode series of expert panels focused on various aspects of regenerative agriculture. In the final panel session I recorded a discussion with Allan Savory, Ana Dig\xf3n, and Rudolf Buehler all of whom have been catalysts for for the creation of community for growers and land stewards around the world.\n\n\n\nSince this is the aspect of my work that I spend the most time on, and because the insights in this conversation have been so formative in the way that I approach my work with Climate Farmers and the European agriculture community, I wanted to revisit this discussion and include it in this series on community building\n\n\n\nIn this session I hosted a discussion on building community in agriculture with my friends and colleagues at Climate Farmers, a non-profit organization working to build the infrastructure to scale regenerative agriculture in Europe.\n\n\n\nIn my work as the Community Coordinator with Climate Farmers I\u2019ve heard from so many of the people in our network that they feel lonely or isolated in their work and in their own communities.\n\n\n\nDespite the work of many organisations to bring together growers in various regions, many farmers still don\u2019t know where to turn to for support and connection.\n\n\n\nFor this panel I was fortunate enough to be joined by three world renowned teachers and farm community builders from Zimbabwe, Spain, and Germany to focus on the nuances and challenges of building agricultural communities from their own unique experiences.\n\n\n\nWe\u2019ll hear from Allan Savory of the Savory Institute and international Holistic Management network, Ana Dig\xf3n from the Agricultura Regenerativa network on the Iberian Peninsula, and Rudolf B\xfchler, leader of the farmers movement BESH and initiator of the UN\u2019s peasant rights in Germany.\n\n\n\nWe\u2019ll go into some key starting points in bringing farming communities together, and what it takes to sustain them in the long term. We go from the importance of managing communities to alternative structures, important aspects of rural priorities, and a lot more.\n\n\n\nJoin the discord discussion channel to answer the weekly questions and learn new skills with the whole community\n\n\n\nLinks:\n\n\n\nclimatefarmers.org\n\n\n\nhttps://www.schloss-kirchberg-jagst.de/\n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.agriculturaregenerativa.es/
