Jeff Siewicki, founder of Vital Mission Farms and RegenerativeSuccess.com, joins this week’s podcast.
Jeff started his career as a pharmacist, but his passion for regenerative farming led him to leave his corporate job and found Vital Mission Farm in 2017. His main goal? Use innovative, climate-friendly regenerative agriculture techniques to grow healthy food for others.
After finding success and scaling the farm, Jeff decided to share all the lessons he had learned with others and launched RegenerativeSuccess.com in 2021. The online community offers consulting, educational materials, and advice to farmers and farmers-to-be on how to start and scale a profitable regenerative farm.
Jeff dives into all the details behind his journey, from leaving the pharmacy world and starting his own farm to launching a platform that helps others with theirs. His desire to help others (and the Earth) is contagious, and one can learn a lot from his unique journey. Listen now on your favorite podcast platform.
