Roundtable Speaker

Organizing to Advance Policy Solutions that Support Regenerative Livestock Production

As public awareness of and interest in regenerative livestock systems grows, farmers and ranchers have a unique opportunity to ensure that our public policies match this demand for more humane, healthy, and resiliently-produced food. Join representatives from the FACE Ag Network- a new national network of pasture-based producers organizing to support policy solutions that benefit animals, people and the environment – to discuss how best to amplify farmer voices in the policy space. Attendees will learn about the resources and tools FACE provides to its members, while sharing their own experiences, successes, and challenges when participating in advocacy. We hope attendees will discuss the issues most affecting their farms, ask questions about the advocacy process, and explore how state and federal policy can support the adoption and viability of regenerative farming & ranching practices.
