From Healthier Soil To A Fairer Fork
Let’s be honest. The way we produce and consume food is broken. It’s a system that looks great on the surface, with supermarket shelves overflowing with produce from every corner of the globe, available any time of year. But when you dig a little deeper, you find a system built on a house of cards, and it’s costing us more than we think. Our industrial food system is a master of illusion. It presents abundance while creating scarcity—scarcity of nutrients in our food, of biodiversity in our fields, of topsoil on our farms, and of fairness for the people who grow it. It’s a system built on an extractive model, where value is pulled from the land, from communities, and from our own bodies, with little thought for the long-term consequences.

Open Source Grow Planning: GrowGood
For too long, farm management software has been designed for an industrial mindset. It’s often rigid, expensive, and forces growers into a generic mould that ignores the diverse, living reality of regenerative agriculture. These tools are built on a philosophy of extraction, not regeneration, making it impossible to capture the true story of your farm—the story of soil being built, biodiversity returning, and ecological health being restored. This frustration was the seed from which GrowGood sprouted. GrowGood is our answer to this challenge. It is not another product for sale, but a digital commons resource we are building with and for the regenerative farming community. It is a free, open-source platform designed to finally give growers a tool that speaks their language.
