Primera Jornada de Campo en Pampa Oriental: un paso hacia la ganadería regenerativa ???? El 29 de octubre marcó un hito importante para Pampa Oriental con la realización de nuestra primera jornada de campo en el establecimiento "La Loma", de la familia González. Más de 140 productores se acercaron desde todas partes del país para vivir el evento que fue enfocado en los resultados productivos, económicos y ambientales que ofrece un modelo de ganadería regenerativa. Siempre fue un anhelo desde los comienzos de Pampa Oriental como Hub de Savory Institute en Uruguay poder hacer una jornada a campo con productores que estuvieran trabajando con nosotros o productores interesados en involucrarse, y ver que a?os después de comenzado con el trabajo se pudo realizar fue algo so?ado! Agradecer a familia González, por recibirnos con tanta calidez y recibir a todas las personas en su establecimiento, ejemplo vivo de innovación y compromiso, a los productores que nos acompa?aron y por sobretodo al equipo de Pampa Oriental por todo el trabajo previo, durante y posterior al evento que llevo a que todo fuera un éxito! Estamos convencidos de que la ganadería regenerativa no solo es una alternativa viable, sino una necesidad para el desarrollo de sistemas agropecuarios. ?Gracias nuevamente a todos los que fueron parte de esta primer jornada!

As our team travels back from Asheville for our annual event, our hearts are with everyone affected by Hurricane Helene in the area. Western North Carolina has suffered significant damage and is still facing disruptions to power, water, communication, and access to main roads. The storm has deeply impacted not only the people, but also the animals and land that define this beautiful region. We extend our heartfelt support to all the communities now recovering, including the Hickory Nut Gap Farm team in Fairview, our teammate Wyatt Ball in Tryon, and our retail member Earth Fare. Although the rains kept us from visiting the Hickory Nut Gap Farm, we were able to hold the event before the storm hit by relocating to an indoor conference center downtown. Thank you to everyone who participated and to @The Collider (CASE Consultants International) for opening its doors to us! For those wishing to help, Hickory Nut Gap Farm has shared a link to support recovery efforts: https://lnkd.in/gMxjQh4G. One of our members also shared The North Carolina Disaster Relief Fund at this link: https://lnkd.in/eeWj-4CM. We will continue to update with specific ways to assist as we learn more. Our thoughts remain with all those affected as they begin the long road to recovery, and we are committed to supporting these resilient communities every step of the way.

Happy 89th birthday to our founder and the man behind Holistic Management, Allan Savory! Many know of Allan's work, but few know the backstory of how Holistic Management came to be. Growing up in Rhodesia, Allan has lived a storied life full of adventure and adversity. This new memoir tells the tales of his boarding school days, tracking wildlife in the Northern Rhodesia Game Department, guerrilla warfare, leading the opposition in Parliament, his exile to North America, and so much more. These stories are more than just harrowing page-turners. They paint the picture of how one man's life – along with a hefty dose of luck and perseverance – provided the unique experiences and insights that formed the basis for #HolisticManagement. We can't wait for you to read his upcoming memoir, scheduled to be released in the coming months.
