Regenerative Tourism; Farms as Educational and Experiential Spaces: Panel Session

Regenerative Tourism; Farms as Educational and Experiential Spaces: Panel Session

Author: Oliver Goshey September 5, 2025 Duration: 54:48
This past month we took a look at the timely topic of agritourism and the potential for farms to serve as community and educational centers.This summer we saw a lot of protests against mass tourism and the effects that it's having on tourist centers like Barcelona near where I live. The antidote to this is something that we debate in past episodes I've done on the developing series on regenerative tourism and in this panel session, we'll take a look at it from a farm perspective. In this session I speak to three people who either have integrated farm visits and agrotoursim as a significant part of their farm enterprise, or are working to empower farmers to integrate tourism and commuinity events into their operation. I was lucky enough to get three fantastic guests who I happen to know personally and exemplify some of the best in entrepreneurial tenacity, creativity, and experience.

What does it mean to live a regenerative life, and how do we actually do it? That's the central question explored in Regenerative Skills, hosted by Oliver Goshey. This isn't just about theory; it's a practical dialogue focused on stewardship of the natural world and fostering strong, resilient communities. Every week, Oliver brings conversations with a diverse range of global experts right to your ears, translating their knowledge into actionable steps you can integrate into your daily habits. You'll hear tangible strategies for everything from soil health and sustainable food systems to building local networks and re-skilling ourselves for a better future. The aim is to move beyond sustainability toward active regeneration, providing the tools and perspectives needed to make a tangible difference right where you are. Tune into this educational podcast for a grounded, hopeful, and deeply informative journey. Together, these discussions build a comprehensive guide for anyone looking to heal their relationship with the environment and their neighbors, proving that positive change is woven from countless small, intentional actions.
