What is regenerative agriculture?
With soil health as the centerpiece, regenerative agriculture works in harmony with nature to give back to the land, not just take from it. At Massa Organics, we use a range of innovative farming practices to build soil organic matter, increase biodiversity, reduce water and air pollution, and hopefully help restore the balance of our climate.
Regenerating the soil
We believe the future of farming is beneath our feet. By limiting tillage, growing cover crops, applying compost, and grazing sheep, we’re continually improving soil fertility and working to build new topsoil! This nourishes our crops and creates resiliency, so our farm can produce for generations to come.
Everything is connected
Our farm is a thriving agro-ecosystem — an interconnected web of people, wildlife, vegetation, and microbes. You’ll find beneficial insects and pollinators, predators that keep pests at bay, livestock that help cycle nutrients, and more. Everyone and everything plays a part.
Healthy soil, healthy planet
As ecologists who aren’t afraid of a challenge, we’re excited to help agriculture be part of the solution, not part of the problem. Our farming and grazing practices focus on regenerating topsoil, which improves water retention and captures and stores carbon from the atmosphere — mitigating a key cause of climate change. By adopting regenerative practices, farms of every size can play a critical role in improving the health of the planet and the people on it.
