Reginaldo Haslett-Marroquin - is the co-founder of Tree Range Farms – a Minnesota-based company – which provides regeneratively-raised chickens, hazelnuts, maple syrup and more…..by growing an ecosystem instead of a crop.

A native of Guatamala, Regi has worked with farmers there and in many other countries…..but for the past several years, he has been focusing his energy within the state of Minnesota.

I met Regi years a few ago at a regenerative agriculture conference and was immediately impressed by his deep knowledge, his message about the need transform the food industry – and the authentic way he lives out what he talks about.

Regi is a hero of mine…..successfully building a regenerative company from the ground up that is truly transforming the poultry model.

The Tree Range Farms example shines a light on a key piece of the puzzle for fixing our food system – the importance of building a system that is a reflection of the holistic tendencies of nature……a system that prioritizes observation first and foremost……and as a result….is able to mimic the interconnectedness of things that nature has perfected over so many years.
