Listen "Ecdysis at EBB Farms: Inside the 1000 Farms Initiative"
Episode Synopsis
Today we’re out in the orchard with Nora D’Antuono from the Ecdysis Foundation, talking real‑world regenerative agriculture: soil health that sticks, biodiversity that pays back, and farmer‑led research through the 1000 Farms Initiative. We dig into tools like the BugBox and Xerinx, why insects are powerful indicators of farm health, and how community + data help farmers move from “hope” to “proof.” Recorded at EBB Farms (Western Kentucky)—the chestnut-growing testbed powered by the United Chestnuts movement. You’ll hear:What 1000 Farms is measuring—and why it matters to your bottom lineSimple biodiversity practices that fit real schedules and budgetsThe role of the BugBox/Xerinx in tracking ecosystem healthHow growers are sharing data, stories, and momentumResources: unitedchestnuts.com/resourcesResources: ecdysis.bioConnect: United Chestnuts Community (FB), Ecdysis Foundation, Blue Dasher Farm Tags: #RegenerativeAgriculture #SoilHealth #Biodiversity #1000Farms #Ecdysis #Chestnuts #UnitedChestnuts #EBBFarmsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/branching-out-growing-together--5924771/support.
