Episode 62 - Fergal Smith - Moy Hill Farm - It's not the cow, it's the how

Former professional big wave surfer Fergal Smith walked away from professional surfing a decade ago to begin a journey of becoming a regenerative farmer on the West coast of Ireland.

In this conversation recorded in June 2022 Dan revisits Moy Hill for a third time and catches up with where Fergal is at on the evolutionary journey of Moy Hill Farm .

Fergal is now working with livestock as a core tool in bringing back soil health, bio-diversity, carbon drawdown and growing nutritious food for the local community.

This conversation is an open exploration of the challenges, complexity and nuance required in bringing life back to landscapes, feeding people healthy food and dealing with the challenges of the urgent transition from industrial agriculture to regenerative farming.
