Real Organic Project Symposium: How Does Regenerative Differ from Organic?

Join the Co-Op for a special screening of Session One of the Real Organic Project Symposium, a virtual series of talks presented documentary style with more than 40 prominent organic farmers, scientists, chefs, and climate activists.

Session One: How Does Regenerative Differ from Organic?

We will discuss the history and meaning of the two terms. How have chemical companies worked to discredit “organic” while also embracing the term “regenerative”? Can both of these groups use the word without confusion and compromise? Finally, which version of regenerative are the billions of dollars in USDA funding for “climate smart” supporting? Can chemical companies that promote “no-till” practices using herbicides and fertilizers really be “climate smart”? In the face of powerful greenwashing, this session explores the question of how to promote a united, worldwide movement for a saner agriculture… and quickly!
