Purpose

Right under our feet, living soils enable us to regenerate natural landscapes, protect waterways, and mitigate climate change. This campaign highlighted how many Canadian farmers are implementing regenerative practices that go beyond sustainability and promote resiliency in our communities and ecosystems. 

Process

Campaign visual identity, in-person engagements through farm events, opportunities to deepen the knowledge through blogs and webinars, and stories that traveled further through short films, podcast interviews, and social media platforms.

The diversity of deliverables and activities proved to be engaging for the audience. The collection of interviews captured a broad picture of the current state of the regenerative movement in Canada through the voices of 11 diverse farmers from 8 provinces, increasing awareness and knowledge of the general public.
