A personal path into regenerative agriculture

Jeff Tkach links his recovery from illness to a wider inquiry into the relationship between soil health, food, and human health. That personal starting point opens onto agriculture’s economic, political, and cultural dimensions, before the book turns to the regenerative organic farming movement and the people working within it. Tkach’s account also reflects his role as CEO of Rodale Institute, placing the movement in the context of an organization devoted to exploring approaches to healthier food and soil. The book brings together a health-related experience and a broader look at farming’s place in everyday life and public debate.

Book overview

When I was 37, I got sick and thought I was going to die.

 

The seventh doctor I saw told me I could farm my body back to health. I had no idea what he meant, but I was desperate, so I went with it. As I followed where it led, I began to see how deeply my health is connected to the health of the soil my food comes from.

 

That realization opened the door to a deeper understanding of how our food is grown and the vital role farming plays in all our lives. It pulled me into the economics, politics, and cultural implications of agriculture and introduced me to countless people who are waking up to these same truths.

 

Eventually, I became CEO of Rodale Institute, a global leader in the regenerative organic farming movement. Now I spend my days surrounded by people who are constantly learning, exploring, and innovating new ways to grow healthier food in healthier soil.

 

This book is about that movement.

 

Because the farm is here.
