Description: Healing Grounds by Liz Carlisle, Ricardo Salvador Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Using rich storytelling, Healing Grounds showcases the BIPOC farmers who are leading the regenerative agriculture movement. Publisher Description A powerful movement is happening in farming today—farmers are reconnecting with their roots to fight climate change. For one woman, thats meant learning her tribes history to help bring back the buffalo. For another, its meant preserving forest purchased by her great-great-uncle, among the first wave of African Americans to buy land. Others are rejecting monoculture to grow corn, beans, and squash the way farmers in Mexico have done for centuries. Still others are rotating crops for the native cuisines of those who fled the "American wars" in Southeast Asia.In Healing Grounds, Liz Carlisle tells the stories of Indigenous, Black, Latinx, and Asian American farmers who are reviving their ancestors methods of growing food—techniques long suppressed by the industrial food system. These farmers are restoring native prairies, nurturing beneficial fungi, and enriching soil health. While feeding their communities and revitalising cultural ties to land, they are steadily stitching ecosystems back together and repairing the natural carbon cycle. This, Carlisle shows, is the true regenerative agriculture – not merely a set of technical tricks for storing CO2 in the ground, but a holistic approach that values diversity in both plants and people.Cultivating this kind of regenerative farming will require reckoning with our nations agricultural history—a history marked by discrimination and displacement. And it will ultimately require dismantling power structures that have blocked many farmers of colour from owning land or building wealth.The task is great, but so is its promise. By coming together to restore these farmlands, we can not only heal our planet, we can heal our communities and ourselves.
