Judith shares her unexpected journey from suburban mom dealing with food allergies to building a thriving 19-acre regenerative farm. What started as a need to understand ingredients turned into a complete lifestyle shift rooted in skill-building, curiosity, and a deep respect for the land. Together, they unpack why soil health matters more than most people realize, how modern food systems have disconnected us from our food, and why learning simple skills like cooking, gardening, and food preservation is one of the most empowering things you can do. This episode is both a wake-up call and a warm invitation: you don’t have to do everything at once—but you can start.","meta_description":"In this powerful and eye-opening conversation, Wendi sits down with regenerative agriculture expert and permaculture designer Judith Horvath to talk about…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":3592,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/homesteading-made-simple-i-joyfully-prepared-127828/episodes/truth-about-your-food-and-what-to-do-w-judith-horvath/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/homesteading-made-simple-i-joyfully-prepared-127828/truth-about-your-food-and-what-to-do-w-judith-horvath.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
