🌱 Cultivating Change with Regenerative Organic Oats! As a proud founding partner and perennial sponsor of the Canadian Organic Growers' Regenerative Organic Oats (ROO) Program, the Nature's Path team was thrilled to participate in our Annual Regenerative Organic Field Day this July. 🌾 We joined hands with Canadian Organic Growers, the ROO Technical Extension Team, and dedicated farmers across the Canadian Prairies to witness the innovative practices transforming our fields and our future. From multispecies cover cropping to vermicomposting and soil health monitoring, these techniques pave the way for a more resilient food system. Our three-year initiative, launched in 2022, supports 25 organic producers cultivating around 15,000 organic acres with regenerative organic practices. This year, we're celebrating the program's success and looking forward to a promising oat harvest and a vibrant community of change-makers! 🌾 COG-ROO demonstrates the power of collaboration and education. We're not just growing oats; we're nurturing a healthier food future for everyone. 👉 Learn More About The Regenerative Organic Oats Program: https://lnkd.in/eVUghAE7 👉 Learn More About Our Partnership with COG: https://lnkd.in/g-uaAJvj #RegenerativeAgriculture #OrganicFarming #SustainableFuture #NaturePath
