Regenerating Ourselves: Mental and physical health in agriculture

Aaron Godard | Carly Godard | Zsofia Mendly-Zambo | Angel Beyde2024-02-06

With this webinar, we explored how agriculture impacts farmers’ health and how we, as consumers, can better understand the root causes and the solutions that can address these concerns. We heard different perspectives about mental and physical health in the agriculture industry from farmers Aaron and Carly Godard of Snowy Mountain Farm in BC, and researcher Zsofia Mendly-Zambo from York University. The conversation was facilitated by Angel Beyde, of the EFAO.

This webinar is the fourth in a 6-part webinar series, running from November 2023 to March 2024, as part of the Stories of Regeneration campaign. The campaign aims to enhance public awareness around regenerative agriculture practices and how farmers contribute to combating climate change and food systems issues.

Duration: 82 min.
