Grass-fed, Carrot Finished Beef @ Santa Carota Beef | Ep #43 Oct 28, 2024

Show notes

I sat down in person with Justin Pettit of Santa Carota Beef, which has a wild back story including grandfather moving out west in the early 1900's, sleeping in a tent and starting his farm, dealing with Mexican cartels, leading up to the present day and much much more to the story.

Santa Carota finish their cattle on....carrots. You read that right, carrots! They are next to some of the largest carrot producers in the world, upcycling the waste to feed Santa Carota Beef. We talk about how that works, the health of the animals and beef, the regenerative agriculture movement, and making America healthy again!

Digital Farmer's Market @ Frozen Logistics | Ep #44 Oct 28, 2024

Show notes

Continuing the conversation with Justin Pettit from Santa Carota Beef, also sat down with Wesley from Frozen Logistics, which aims to provide a digital farmer's market through DeliveredCold. We talked about how farmers and ranchers can work together with Welsey as a way to provide your goods direct to consumer. Frozen Logistics/Delivered Cold is an incredible opportunity for a consumer to go online to their digital farmer's market, getting produce, meats, prepackaged foods, breads and baked goods, BBQ and cooked meats delivered straight to your door. It gives you a way to see full transparency, avoiding buying beef from the grocery store without a clue where it's from.

Siete was all over the news recently when they sold their company to Pepsi Co for $1,200,000,000. This episode is about all things food manufacturing as it is a very messy industry, especially in America.

Ingredients that are allowed in America but not anyone else, what do companies do to cut corners and increase their profit margins, and how can we trust a brand after selling? Cover all of that in this episode.

Regenerative Meal Prep @Seasons ATX | Ep #41 Oct 23, 2024

Show notes

This conversation was all about supporting regenerative agriculture locally. How can we support our local farmers and ranchers while also providing a meal delivery service that does just that plus the meals actually taste amazing? That's SeasonsATX.

Founders Jason & Jeremiah wanted to provide a meal delivery service that sources ingredients locally from regenerative farms and ranches. We dive into how they started the business and how we can better support the regenerative agriculture movement moving forward.

"Regenerative, Artisanal, Local Food

We source our ingredients from local Texas farmers and ranchers who tend to their land and livestock using traditional techniques that support the environment, rather than degrade it. Once their harvest is in our hands, we strive to tend to it with as much care as they do. We make all of our dishes from scratch using nutrient-rich ingredients like fresh herbs, in-house rendered fats, sea salt, and slow cook bone broths. We choose to cook with filtered water and no seed oils."

Author Mark Easter, The Blue Plate | Ep #38 Oct 14, 2024

Show notes

I sat down with Ecologist and Author, Mark Easter to discuss his new book, The Blue Plate.

"Ecologist Mark Easter offers a detailed picture of the impact the foods you love have on the earth. Organized by the ingredients of a typical dinner party, including seafood, salad, bread, chicken, steak, potatoes, and fruit pie with ice cream, each chapter examines the food through the lens of the climate crisis. Gathered like guests around the table, here are the stories of these foods: the soil that grew the lettuce, the farmers and ranchers and orchardists who steward the land, the dairy and farm workers and grocers who labor to bring it to the table. Each chapter reveals the causes and effects of greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the social and environmental impact of out-of-season and ar-from-home demand."

Mollie Engelhart @ Sage Regenerative Kitchen & Brewery/Sovereignty Ranch | Ep #36 Oct 02, 2024

Show notes

Chef Mollie Engelhart is the founder of Sage Regenerative Kitchen & Brewery, formally known as Sage Vegan Bistro. She made the decision to switch from a fully vegan restaurant to a regenerative kitchen, including meats. In this episode we talk about her journey with all of this, the challenges she has faced and is currently facing, starting Sovereignty Ranch, and the current reality of regenerative agriculture. Is it working?

As a former vegan myself, this was a conversation I have been really looking forward to. There is an alternative to factory farming, using and abusing animals and that is regenerative agriculture.
