Each week, we spotlight farmers putting regenerative principles into practice, working with the land to build soil, raise healthy animals, and strengthen their communities.

This week, meet in Ashland, Ohio. Joshua and Lindsey Welch, along with their two kids, raise heritage beef, pork, and chicken the old-fashioned way—on pasture, with respect for the animals and the land. Six years in, their small family farm continues to prove that sustainable, community-driven agriculture starts right at home.

Beneath every teaspoon of forest soil is a superhighway of life, bacteria, fungi, and microbes working together to build soil health. Tillage and chemicals tear those highways apart. Jeff Moyer’s book, Organic No-Till Farming, shows how we can farm with the soil instead of against it.
