Agroecology

Agroecology

Definition

A holistic, ecological approach to agriculture that integrates local knowledge, biodiversity, and sustainability into food production systems.

Interpretation

Farming as if life matters. Agroecology is not just about yields β€” it’s about justice, community, and regeneration. It grows food and freedom. Farming with the whole in mind. It honors farmers as stewards, landscapes as teachers, and food systems as expressions of place.

Living Invitation

Learn one indigenous or local farming practice from your region. What does it teach you about reciprocity? Research a local farm or project practicing agroecology. What principles are they following that differ from industrial models?
