Regenuary conversations - No 13. Clare Hill - Director of FIA Farms

In this episode we talk to Clare Hill of FIA Farms. Clare Hill is Regenerative Agriculture Director at FAI Farms, working with food businesses such as Arla, McDonalds and Ikea on their regenerative pilot’s and programmes. Clare’s latest own project is the development of a Model farm in Shropshire, aiming to bring vibrancy to family farms through regenerative agriculture. 

Clare started the transition of FAI’s 1200 acre farm from organic to regenerative production in 2019, achieving Savory Institute Ecological Outcome Verification in 2020. Clare and her team have been through a transformation in the way they make decisions and approach the management of the farm. It is this practical experience of managing for regeneration which leads her to help others.

Her explanations of what regenerative means and how big business can pivot make this episode great listening to anyone wanting to understand the subject on a deeper level.
