Stories of Regeneration: A New (Re)Generation - Ft. Carrie Richards

- When Carrie Richards was growing up, she always had a feeling she'd end up taking over the ranch that her family had owned and operated since 1941. What she didn't expect was to do so in her 30s, with a husband and two kids in tow, and to radically change the way her family had managed their land for generations. Through research, trial and error, and a tireless multi-generational effort, Carrie has been able to implement regenerative farming methods that build back soil and revitalize the land. By stewarding the land regeneratively - focused on the full spectrum of health from soil to cattle to community - Carrie is bringing new life to the family ranch and illustrating the wonderful possibilities of regeneration.

Just a city-dwelling beef consumer here trying to learn about why I should support organic, grass-fed cattle and regenerative farming. I absolutely loved watching this video and am totally inspired to do my part by spending the extra $$ and voting with my pocket book to encourage this movement back to the way God intended us to care for the land. You go girl!!
The main reason is that the meat processors will sell you 0:00 Pink Slime instead of wholesome ground beef. Do an internet search on Pink Slime.
I've long believed that the best stockmen are women. I could be wrong about that but Carrie Richards helps persuade me that I'm not. Nice addition to the series.
I’m so jealous, kids who raise animals make better adults 👍
"Take care of the grass. The cows will take care of themselves" - wise words! Kiss The Ground has nothing to do with "environmentalism" ... it's just common sense. It's getting back to human wisdom and what actually works
I was raised in market gardening and always told "take care of the soil and the plants take care of themselves" same principle really.
I came across THE SAVORY INSTITUTE a few years back and I always wondered WHY does the Whole World not wake up and simply follow their example ??
Well done to you guys -- this is a beautiful story of FAITH, GUTS and HARD WORK !!!! EVERY other farmer who shows what Regenerative Agriculture has doe for them has a HUGE SMILE of satisfaction !!!! BRILLIANT -- KEEP IT UP - - - - -
Pretty much the story of me and my dad. Farming is tough, but farming with you family can be the tougher, but the rewards in the end are priceless. So awesome to see these stories. We're not the new generation, we're the regeneration
You guys that was FANTASTIC! We’ve always loved Carrie, but you captured her and her ranch’s essence beautifully! Thank you for shining a light on those practicing Holistic Management 🙏
Thank you for all the work you do to educate the open minded.
I thank Savory Institute for spreading this knowledge... i am a small farmer with a few cattle in south of India... your research helped a lot to regenerate the soil here... keep up doing your good work... I share to as many people about you ...🙏
Any updates on this operation?
breathtaking feeling i love the drone shots
Hopeful, inspiring and simply beautiful to see a return to stewardship of your land.
WHAT A WONDERFUL STROY AND GREAT JOB!!!!! FANTASTIC!!!
Carrie!!! What a great portrait of the Richard’s family - past, present and future!!!
Thank you for all you do. God Bless you🙏🏼🇺🇸
That’s my brother!👍
I ❤ this story. My grandfather was a farmer. He had 12 children and lots of descendants. Not a single one has taken up farming. I hope young generations will learn regenerative farmer and change our world for the better.
Really good, we need to highlight this transition that thankfully more and more ranchers are making.
Loved the video.
The right way
Having been on the ranch a number of times, I can say it's absolutely thrilling to see the progress Richards Ranch has made (re)discovering a balanced approach that is allowing the land to heal itself from the inside out. The commitment the Carrie and Dan and extended family have made is an inspiration to all. I see three generations of family who's love and hard work pays dividends well beyond any paycheck. You are very fortunate to have such a special place to call home!
It is so awesome that they let us customers in to see farm and family. These are exactly the kind of people I was hoping to find. I love meat and I also want to see that the cows are treated well, and that the land is used in a sustainable way (where possible). Carrie Richards, thank you for the work you and your family are doing. This is the kind of thing we need in this world.
Well Done Carrie .. it is often so hard for the older folk to change xxx
Absolutely amazing! Congratulations Richards Ranch 💕
Whoever produced, made this film, has an artists eye and a beautiful heart too. They make it look so easy, and to be honest, with these folks and that land...
We demand a part two with more Ruby the dog, Lincoln and Lucy!
Incredible, she is an inspiration for the next generation of farmers. I applaude her courage!
Well done Carrie, leading by example is so much more effective, and, working WITH the family and co-workers encourages everyone to belong! All the best from the UK.
Lovely story. Carrie is a hero.
Having to run the ranch as a business will be one of the biggest turning point in ranches for the farmer/rancher.
Bad ass on so many levels! Keep up the good. This story gives us all hope for a better tomorrow.
Completely overwhelming wonderful story and people....Iam beyond words to even describe how this affects and infects my spirit in a positive way...... beautiful.....
The husband seems like such an amazing person! I hope yall succed with everything you’re doing.
Such a great illustration of the process and the struggles when trying something new. You could see the struggles and challenges but also witness the victory when she was feeling the soil and seeing the worms! Thanks Kiss the Ground for another great film!
We’re looking forward to tuning in!
Congratulations on taking the big step to a more healthy natural farm.
What a great story, thanks for sharing. It is always hard to have a difficult conversation with our elders who we grow up thinking they know every thing. Well done to your Dad who had the wisdom to let go of generations of farming and give you the reins. The Re-gen movement is exciting and soon will hit a tipping point. All thanks, to the early adopters and people with balls to buck a couple hundred years of new world farming . Great work (as hard as it is) Carrie and family.
Love this video. Some of us are doing the right things.
What an awesome family with such a great vision! I hope they will succeed.
Its great what your doing. I hope more ranchers do it. LESS CHEMICALS.
Zero chemicals
when someone says
"we are all in this together"
how very true.
we are all part of the wheel of life
and as the guardians
it is our privilege/responsibilty to nurture life.
look after country,
country will look after you.

Respect. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Denmark.
Beautiful story! Change is hard, good luck 👍🏻🙂
Such a great film!
Great job taking the baton from your father & listening to your intuition that it was time to go home. 👏🏽
Love this video and so grateful for Carrie her family and team for creating a ranch that will contribute to saving the world. And I don’t feel I’m exaggerating. 💕🇨🇦🐂🐄🐑
Wow. Fighting for the things which is going to work out r not, but still we are trying...so true....good 24 mins after a long time, thank you guys for putting a lot and lot of efforts in presenting the cause in a beautiful way....
Loved hearing this story. Congratulations on a successful takeover of the family ranch.
You are on the right track for the earths future. I while watched all the Utube video's from "Carbon Cowboys" 9 really worth watching. I was amazed & happy to see that you can teach old dogs new tricks. Your on the right track girl, cause when it comes to the environment it is all about the grass and always has been.. Thank you for been in my opinion a steward of the land..
well said!!
“right track … earths future”
Uh huh. The track being one w no ranches at all. Quite a plan for … a whole planet. Stalin, Putin, Mao have nothing on you planetary planners.
Amazing!! 💚 Thank you for sharing! 🙏🏾
Great video! We love their beef. Truly enjoyed seeing the operation.
Beautiful setup. Love to see some pasture-raised hogs Incorporated. It looks like you got plenty of room
Keep doing what you're doing Carrie.
Beautiful. And congratulations! Very well done
I just came across you CZcams video and I am amazed by your video, your family and you vision for your property. As a sixty nine year old female. I am so proud of you---YOU GO GIRL!!!!! I have only one suggestion, because I think you have done a GREAT job-- and that suggestion that you get a good quarter horse to help you move the cattle. A good horse will help you keep the end of the group together and moving.
Wow, this is great! Way to go Carrie and family!
My grandparents used to do this they would move if the cattle and they would move our chickens and they would move our pigs this is amazing that she's doing this like this God bless you from my family to yours you doing a great job
You guys are heroes!!!
Awesome guys!
thanks for your engagement....from Switzerland
History. Mystery. We love. Countryside places across the 🌏 We happy to see Back to Agriculture its reality. Good wishes love to stay " && visit there
It’s hard to change old people set in their ways, I’m glad you’ve taken over and your father is understanding more.
I wouldn't say old farmers are set in there ways, they've spent years learning what works for their farm and what doesn't at least here in NZ, all the ones I know are very open to new ideas and tech but only adopt them if they work. I learnt the hard way when I took over the farm, coming out of agricultural college armed with all the latest ideas set about adopting the latest high producing grasses only to have them fail in the first drought , so no Dad wasn't set in his ways he'd just learnt what the farm could handle. All young people have to learn by their mistakes ( I made enough of them). I think it's better to evolve your farming systems as you go rather than jump to something completely new and unproven.
She’s amazing and an inspiration! ❤️
Inspiring and refreshing!
Nice to have found your channel!
What a pairing. Gives us older folks a lot of hope for the future generations.
awesome all the way around!!!
Carrie is the boss! :)
Beautiful scenery
Absolutely loved this short production and I can truly say that I am very inspired! Thank you so much for sharing your story and your mission. I hope to follow in the footsteps of amazing people like you and together we may all be able to make the changes and make a difference 😁
The Truth is so obvious when you see it, hear it, feel it. Glory…..
A lot of long term time involved…. You all earned it!
Kudos kiddos💯
Great video. And I must say, her husband’s mustache is glorious
Great story and process
Amazing!
Love it! Great video.
Great job Carrie!!
Goddess bless you in this work! Thank you for sharing your story
great video
So amazing , thanks
How exciting to see regenerative agriculture being practiced in California, just up the road a piece from me! More and more it's happening, and really this is the only real solution to the drought when you can improve the soil so much the carbon and water stay in it and nourish the life growing in it and on it. Good job, and very nice video!
Seem like they would benefit from livestock guard dogs & herding dogs. Good to see this important work.
Just came across this , beautiful , she's gonna be a damn good farmer , willing to admit and learn from mistakes. Passionate and full of love.the person who wasn't worried or think they know everything going into farming is the one that I would be worried about.i understand about being affraid of loosing the farm .No worries for this lady though, she has what it takes . Much love ❤️ 🙏 and many blessings
Absolutely incredible content. I hope to reach this level of video quality with my videos on this channel (Wild Primal)... thank you for what you do for the planet and for helping correct modern society's flawed food production system!
Great Video! "Who are you Guys"? Love that Quote. Really Well done Documentary! Entertaining and Informative!
Amazing👍😊
Fantastic 😊 Congratulations 😊
Most places missed farms and it's challenges one thing hidden in my heart is it is the only peaceful place on earth,our children will benefit in a way or the other just like the boy n girl following the parents thanks cheers.
Tremendous!
Great Video! Very inspirational! Im sure you've heard of him, but Joel Saletin with PolyFace farms does some great grazing plan and pasture management plans.
Look after the soil and the planet will take care of all of us. I’m loving how MILLIONS a of US across this gorgeous planet of ours, have downloaded this exact same principle all at once.
I’m the 100th monkey and so is everyone else who just “know” what to do with their land.
Hun the FEAR of losing yr farm…that’s the Indoctornation of fear…You don’t have to fear anymore. I think you know this, your doing such an amazing job using emotional intelligence, proven techniques…your succeeding. Blessings sweet lady. 🙏🇦🇺💕
She’s not looking after the “planet”, just one ranch which is very hard. So far, doing a good job of it.
Carrie awesome job
So great to see this ! It takes a lot of courage to step outside the norm Great job Carrie and staff/ family 💚🌿 You are making the world a better healthier place 😊
So cool that Adam Driver is your husband! :) loved this video your soil looks awesome, I bet those are very happy cows
Awesome channel! subscribed!
New to your channel, love what you are doing. Yes, it will work! Blessings~~
That's how I felt about our farms in Iowa that have been in our family for six generations. My mother, who is not a blood relation to the farms, has said I can't live on the property because it's a "working" farm. Well i'm in Idaho on a homestead now and will never live in Iowa. My Father is surely rolling in his grave. Bitter, you bet!
OUTSTANDING

This whole movie is giving me "Heartland" vibes.
What a beautiful family and ranch, and two absolutely adorable children!
Congratulations on your decision to get into regenerative agriculture. Smart move! It’s really the way to go.

You may have seen this, but a very good series I watched, by Gabe Brown, on CZcams, it’s titled: Treating the Farm as an Ecosystem with Gabe Brown, Part 1, The Five Tenets of Soil Health.
Gabe gets into the details of regenerative agriculture and also throws in some really really good humor! His story is amazing! I’ve watched his series twice and I’m not even a rancher or a farmer! 😂
For those ranchers AND farmers, who don’t think regenerative agriculture can be successful where they’re at, if Gabe Brown can do it in North Dakota, the state that has the record number of days below freezing, every year, it can be done in your ranch or farm. The key is to maximize profits, not yield. Gabe discusses this. Take notes.
“It’s really the way to go”
Are you are farmer or rancher, hand or owner, old school or new? Ag scientist?
Good on you.
Amazing
i think this is a great channel....
Por favor!!!! Algunos necesitamos subtítulos en español!!!! Gracias!!! Increíbles imágenes!!!!
