Regeneration Rising is a podcast for beginning agrarians, about the trials, tribulations, and joys of a life in regenerative agriculture. Each episode will feature conversations with apprentices and other young agrarians, tidbits and tips from regenerative ag experts, job announcements, and more. Originally started by Shawna Burhans and Ariel Bobbett, two young agrarians, season two is now being led by Quivira Coalition’s New Agrarian apprenticeship program. As we face the challenge of repopulating our fields and rangelands with a new generation, we’re building a community of ranchers and farmers who are working towards a thriving workforce for the future of food, agriculture, and working lands. They are our Regeneration Rising.

In this episode, host Kristina chats with Julie Friend, owner of Wildom Farm in western Maryland. Wildom Farm uses regenerative practices in raising pasture-raised chicken, forest-raised pork, grass-fed beef and lamb, and eggs, as well as lard based moisturizer and sunscreen. Julie talks about her journey into agriculture starting with farmer’s market visits and later moving from Chicago back to family land to start a farm. We also discuss heritage breed selection, minimizing on-farm waste, value-added products, and a new research project she’s excited to start.
