Missouri Roots. Regenerative Future.

Columbia closes the Big Tent Barn Tour - and it does so on home turf. Missouri is cattle country. It is where Greg Judy has spent two decades proving that regenerative grazing works, and where some of the most committed regenerative farmers in America are already operating. The Big Tent Barn Tour comes here to meet them.

The final stop brings together farmers, ranchers and landowners from across Missouri and the wider Midwest for a full day of conversation, music and community. Beef cattle, row crops in transition and diversified farms are the backdrop. Roots So Deep film clips running through the day bring in farmers from further afield navigating the same questions.

The day moves from serious morning conversations to an afternoon of workshops and huddles with speakers, excellent food, and closes with live music and good company.

One of the most respected regenerative grazing practitioners in North America. He has consulted on thousands of farm and ranch operations across the US, helping producers move from conventional to regenerative systems.

Filmmaker behind Carbon Cowboys and Roots So Deep, the acclaimed documentary series on regenerative ranching. Professor of Practice at Arizona State University.
