About this event
Conversations about regenerative agriculture often stay abstract until educators, community builders, and curious participants get in the same room and ask practical questions. CFS Conversations: "Regenerative Agriculture Education" is designed to make that exchange real: a focused in-person gathering where people can explore how regenerative ideas are taught, shared, and put into practice through learning. If you care about how communities learn to work with land more responsibly, this event offers a grounded place to listen, connect, and contribute. Rather than treating regenerative agriculture as a buzzword, the conversation centers on education itself: what people need to understand, how knowledge is passed on, and what it takes to make this work accessible to more people. About the Event This event is part conversation, part community gathering, and part networking space for people interested in the role education plays in regenerative agriculture. The focus is not only on the principles behind regenerative systems, but also on how those principles can be communicated in ways that are practical, inclusive, and useful across different communities and settings. Because this is an in-person event, the format creates room for the kind of exchange that is harder to replicate online: asking follow-up questions, meeting people with adjacent interests, and hearing how others are approaching the same challenges from different angles. Expect a setting that encourages thoughtful discussion rather than passive attendance. At its core, this is a space for people who want to think seriously about how regenerative agriculture is learned. That may mean discussing formal education, community-based learning, peer exchange, cultural knowledge, or the ways people encounter these ideas for the first time. The event sits at the intersection of community, culture, and practice. What to Expect You can expect a morning gathering built around discussion, connection, and shared learning. While the exact flow may vary, the event is well suited to a format that gives attendees the chance to both absorb ideas and participate in the conversation. Likely elements of the experience include: Welcome and framing to set the context for the conversation around regenerative agriculture education Focused discussion on how regenerative ideas are taught, interpreted, and adapted in real communities Community exchange where attendees can surface questions, experiences, and observations from their own work or interests Informal networking with others who care about food systems, land stewardship, education, and community learning This is not the kind of event where you need to arrive as an expert. It is much better suited to people who are ready to be engaged, curious, and thoughtful. You may spend part of the time listening closely, part of it comparing perspectives with others, and part of it identifying where your own interests fit into the broader conversation. Because the topic is education, expect the conversation to move beyond farming techniques alone. The most useful discussions are often about language, accessibility, values, teaching methods, and the challenge of helping people connect ecological principles to everyday decisions. That broader lens makes the event relevant to a wider mix of attendees than the title might suggest at first glance. Why Attend If regenerative agriculture matters, then education matters just as much as implementation. People need ways to understand not only what regenerative agriculture is, but why it matters, how it differs from conventional approaches, and how they can participate meaningfully. This event creates space to think about those questions with others who are taking them seriously. Attending can help you sharpen your own understanding of the educational side of regenerative work. You may leave with clearer language for explaining these ideas, better questions to ask in your own projects or community, and a stronger sense of how learning shapes long-term change in food and land systems. There is also real value in the room itself. Events like this bring together people from different backgrounds who may not usually meet in the same context: community organizers, learners, artists, growers, cultural workers, and people simply trying to understand where they fit. Those overlaps can lead to useful introductions, fresh perspectives, and more grounded thinking. You should attend if you want more than inspiration. This event is for people who want substance: clearer ideas, better conversations, and a stronger sense of how education can support regenerative futures in practical, community-rooted ways. Practical Details Format: In person Date: Thursday, March 26 Time: 9:00 AM PDT Event type: Conversation, community gathering, networking, and meetup Because this is an in-person morning event, plan to arrive with enough time to settle in and be present from the start. Early gatherings often have a different energy than evening events: more focused, more intentional, and often better suited to genuine discussion before the day pulls people in other directions. The event is especially relevant if you value face-to-face exchange and want to build local or real-world connections around regenerative agriculture, education, and community learning. If this topic intersects with your work, your studies, or your broader curiosity, showing up in person will likely make the conversation more useful and memorable. Bring your questions, your perspective, and your willingness to engage. Whether you are deeply involved in regenerative work or just beginning to explore how these ideas are taught and shared, this gathering offers a concrete place to step into the conversation.
Who should attend
