Welcome to our Wyoming Sovereign Round Up Podcast Series detailing every amazing talk that happened live in Wyoming This summer. Our sixth talk discusses the state of the regenerative agriculture movement in the United States, current bottlenecks and how the way we raise animals can massively impact the land for the better.
Many of us are aware that our food system is broken! With 4 major corporations controlling the mass majority of meat production in the United States, this monopoly set the stage for the shortages during 2020 and ROARING egg prices in recent years. Today we’re talking to two people who are trying to make a difference on a hyper local scale.
AJ Richards, has an innovative vision for agricultural and food supply chain management. With a background in family ranching and a deep commitment to improving the world, AJ is on a mission to transform the current food supply chain model. AJ and his team are developing a SAAS marketplace, connecting consumers directly to producers nationwide, and empowering families to take control over their food supply. AJ has a passion for locally sourced meat, produce, dairy, eggs, and enhancing food security, reducing carbon footprints, and benefiting local communities. AJ’s innovative approach inspires conscious choices that support a sustainable and resilient food system
RC Carter From “Carter Country Meats” is working in the arid mountain west, which possesses a tough yet fragile ecosystem, climate and topography, yet supports some of the most powerful grasses in the world. Putting our responsibility to the land 1st, and evolving information and education, we can only commit to doing better than the day before. In a world that extracts from the soil to fill bank accounts, we walk forward knowing that our life's work is who we choose to become as individuals connected to a whole, and what matters is what we leave for future generations.
