December 2026 – Support Healthy Soils

Future Green Members Monthly Meetup – 8th December 2026

Ground Up: Supporting Healthy Soils Through Food Business

Join us for our December 2026 monthly meetup where we explore how food businesses can support healthy soils — the foundation of sustainable food systems.

Soil health is critical to our food future. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization, 95% of our food comes from soil, yet one-third of global soils are degraded. Healthy soils store carbon, filter water, support biodiversity, and produce more nutritious food.

This session examines how food businesses can actively support healthy soils through their sourcing decisions. Learn about regenerative agriculture practices that rebuild soil health, including cover cropping, reduced tillage, and integrated livestock management. Understand how to identify and partner with farmers who prioritise soil regeneration.

Discover the connection between healthy soils and food quality — research shows that produce grown in healthy soils often contains higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and beneficial compounds. Learn how sourcing from regenerative farms can differentiate your business and meet growing consumer demand for climate-friendly food.

We’ll explore certification schemes and verification approaches for soil health claims, including Regenerative Organic Certified and other emerging standards. Understand how supporting healthy soils contributes to UN SDG 15: Life on Land and climate action.

Whether you’re sourcing fresh produce, grains, or animal products, this meetup provides actionable insights for making soil health a cornerstone of your sustainable sourcing strategy.
