Embracing Regenerative Farming


” A Community-Focused Approach to Health and Wellness.”

If you’ve been intrigued by the buzz surrounding Regenerative Farming, you might be questioning whether it’s just another passing trend or a marketing strategy. Contrary to skepticism, Regenerative Farming practices are far from a fleeting fad; instead, they offer substantial benefits for the environment and the quality of produce.

As realtors with a growing community focus on health and wellness in Perth County, we recognize the importance of understanding the essence of Regenerative Farming.

One significant departure from conventional farming practices in Regenerative Farming is the avoidance of tilling the land. This critical practice contributes to preserving soil health, increasing water retention, and enhancing nutrient availability, resulting in more resilient and fertile land. Experts confirm that minimizing conventional tilling is a pivotal step in combatting climate change, turning back the clock on environmental damage.

The award-winning documentary, “Kiss the Ground,” narrated by Woody Harrelson, serves as a must-watch testament to the potential of Regenerative Farming. It sheds light on how drawing down atmospheric carbon into the soil is the “missing piece of the climate puzzle.” For those genuinely interested in climate change, this documentary provides hope and insight.


Regenerative farming extends its impact to livestock, promoting a practice known as “mob grazing.” Cows, sheep, pigs, and chickens raised on regenerative farms are given the freedom to graze in designated pasture areas, contributing to biodiversity and naturally controlling pests without the need for chemicals. This practice also aids in carbon sequestration, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and further aligning with Perth County’s commitment to a healthier environment.
The benefits of Regenerative Farming extend to the quality of food produced. Animals raised on a natural grass diet yield meat and eggs with superior flavor, nutritional content, and a reduced environmental footprint. Improved soil structure and increased organic matter contribute to water conservation, minimizing runoff and enhancing water absorption.


As realtors increasingly dedicated to a community-focused approach to health and wellness, we highlight two locally based Regenerative Farms in Perth County.

  • Wagyu World in Kitchener-Waterloo: This establishment takes pride in its commitment to authenticity, sourcing specialized Japanese grass directly from Japan to meet the exacting standards required for raising Wagyu cattle. By importing this grass, Wagyu World ensures a genuine and unparalleled dining experience that captures the essence of Japanese Wagyu beef.
  • McIntosh Farms: A commendable family-owned business in Listowel, McIntosh Farms exemplifies the spirit of regenerative, organic farming. Their 300-acre farm utilizes mob grazing as the principal feeding method for cattle, pork, sheep, and chickens, enriching their lives and promoting a balanced ecosystem.
