The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).
To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:
www.realorganicproject.org/farms
We believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.
If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000 Real Fans!

    Re: Scale at 45:30 time mark. In reference to scale . The magic number seems to be 400 or less. A test was done on the elementary school secretaries to see how many children's names they could remember. At all the best elementary schools, the student population was less than 400. And, the school secretary could remember every child's name on sight of that youngster. The Amish tend to start a new community if their local community grows to about 400. After that number, it starts getting hard to remember everyone's name...when you "see" that person. Some Native American tribes form another band of families when the local band grew to about 400. Why? Because it became hard to remember the history of an individual person's family. Historically, socially, culturally, it doesn't seem to make much difference. There is something about that upper limit of 400 people, and it is time to quit growing and simply replicate.

    I'm afraid the definition of Organic is not well known and the word itself is not without its own flaws. Anything can be toxic in enough concentration and not everything organic is healthy. Because of this I do not disagree with seeking various tiers of "Organic" to which each may carry their own title. If any of the conspiracy claims are true about why poor nutrition for us leads to profits for them, there is a great deal of earnings to offset.

    I have had concerns about regenerative agriculture being hijacked /co-opted by some bad actors. It's been challenging trying to share those concerns while also making it clear that I don't believe regenerative agriculture is bad in its purest form. I appreciate the fact that you discussed some of those concerns. I am curious if you two have concerns about the United Nations promoting regenerative agriculture and a circular economy given that they say 12 of their 17 sustainable development goals are heavily reliant on the implementation of regenerative. The UN has some highly questionable public-private partnerships.

He knows the food system well and what it will take to stand up to the cartel that is poisoning us and the earth wholesale with the result being a chronic disease epidemic that is destroying our youth and our future. Watch one of his podcast formats with Aubrey Marcus . Joe Rogan or many others, the subject of food comes up every time. RFK Jr understands that the soil is our future. That’s my 2cents worth, I had to back the previous comment because it’s true and important.. cheers to the Real organic project!
