Regenerative Farming & Indigenous Conservation in Zambia with Rolf Shenton

The Trail Less Traveled

Rolf Shenton grew up living in the bush and farming in Zambia. He is passionate about regenerative farming and preserving biodiversity. Rolf is the founder of Grassroots Trust Limited, a non-profit focused on helping communities shape a viable future. They use and promote holistic management framework to guide decision making and hope to contribute to a regenerating environment and resilient income streams in Zambia.

They are able to do this by focusing on building community-based resource management structures, low input agriculture, wildlife management, and holistic planned grazing. We would like to extend a big shout out to Cactus Agony, a local Zambian musician and friend of Rolf, for the use of his song "Bush Territory".
