Last week, some of our crewmembers visited our four Vital Farms restorative farms. There, we got to know our farmers, discussed their regenerative farming practices and walked among a sea of diverse cover crops on land that was once dry and bare. These conversations play an integral part in our approach to regenerative farming as we continue to learn and work toward a sustainable future for our farms.
