Understanding Graze Against The Machine Regenerative Farming

We all like knowing where our food comes from and how it’s grown and raised. I hear a lot of people say “the best way to do that is to get to know your farmer.” Our practices of Graze Against The Machine Regenerative Farming is inspired by indigenous principles. Our approach is constantly evolving as we slowly learn from indigenous communities and unlearn the deep-seeded propaganda of industrial agriculture that even pervades some organic practitioners.

We find that not everyone has the time let alone knows what questions to ask to get to know a farm. Here are a few suggestions to get started down the path of understanding the philosophy and practices of a farm.

1. What pesticides and herbicides do you use on your farm?
2. How do you encourage biodiversity on your farm?
3. Have you adopted indigenous principles in your farming practices?
4. What do you do to promote animal welfare?
5. What are you doing to help capture carbon on your farm?
6. Where were you made and assembled?
