(Regeneration Rising is the other Quivira Coalition podcast; you can find it here , or wherever you get your podcasts.) In this heartfelt episode, Taylor shares her unique journey into regenerative agriculture, her experiences running and eventually closing a small farm, and the emotional struggles and triumphs along the way. While we talk a lot about how to get started in regenerative agriculture, it is also important that we talk about the challenges of working in agriculture as well as what it's like to make hard decisions to shut down your operation. We hope this honest conversation highlights the importance of community, resilience, and adaptability.","meta_description":"Mary-Charlotte has bronchitis, so this week we will be joined by Kristina Britt , the new podcast host of Regeneration Rising, as she interviews Taylor Mu…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2359,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/down-to-earth-the-planet-to-plate-podcast-655855/episodes/knowing-when-to-shut-down-the-farm/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/down-to-earth-the-planet-to-plate-podcast-655855/knowing-when-to-shut-down-the-farm.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
