Gabe Brown and Kyle Richardville will unpack the concept of ecological succession and why it’s central to regenerative agriculture. They’ll explore how understanding nature’s successional processes can guide land management decisions, accelerate soil and ecosystem recovery, and help producers work with nature instead of against it. George Hosier will join the discussion to share how these principles are being applied on his own farm. This session offers a powerful lens for diagnosing dysfunction and designing systems that evolve toward greater diversity, stability, and productivity.
