My dad and I have been working on converting our conventional farm to regenerative practices and it's become this tense dance of him feeling judged and me feeling frustrated by how slow he is to change. We used to love farming together and now every conversation about soil health or cover crops feels like a battle, and I can see we're both losing the joy we once found in the work.
More people experience this than they realize.
The urgency of ecological healing has created a dynamic that's damaging the very relationship that makes the farm a living system.
