What is Regenerative Gardening?
Regenerate is defined by Merriam-Webster as “restored to a better, higher, or more worthy state.”
Regenerative gardening is when we use our garden as a tool to restore and improve the land from the impacts of poor practices. Regenerative conditions continue to improve, and not deteriorate, over time.
Regenerative agriculture is an increasingly popular movement that applies these principles to farming systems.
Industrialization created farming practices that have destroyed soil health, animal habitats, water systems, and more.
It is important, however, to remember that this is a systemic problem and not the fault of the individual. We do the best with the knowledge we have.
We’ve done these same destructive practices to our yards.
We’ve covered them in foreign, shallowly rooted, thirsty turf grass and sprayed deadly chemicals. We’ve planted foreign ornamentals with little nutritional value to native wildlife, ignored soil health, and so much more.
The ecological impacts of this are exponential, though much less widely talked about than the impacts of farming.
To garden regeneratively is to operate holistically.
It is to acknowledge the impacts of your garden and respect all of the inhabitants of the ecosystem.
It means your gardening practices improve soil health, conserve animal species by restoring habitats, and increase biodiversity.
It means working with natural systems instead of against them.
By regenerating the land we live on, we can sequester atmospheric CO2, increase wildlife populations, and decrease food scarcity.
