Glenn Morris Australian Farmer using regenerative farming practices to build resilience

Glenn Morris is not just an organic cattle farmer; he’s also a #climatechange change advocate. Glenn gained national attention when he rode his horse across the Sydney Harbour Bridge, advocating for change and action to address the challenges created by climate variability. He has been farming for over two decades and runs two properties in Northern NSW. Glenn uses holistic management on his farm and focuses on soil health and water storage to attain greater security and resilience. This summary highlights Glenn’s regenerative approach and the range of adaptations he’s implemented on his farm to address the bigger picture of climate change. ‘We broke up the paddocks on the contour using permaculture swales. We have up to eight or ten kilometres of soak banks now which are helping rehydrate that landscape and get everything healthy.’ - Glenn Morris Videography/Photography: Grow Love Media Thanks to Glenn Morris for generously sharing his story.
