After a successful pilot, we are expanding our partnership with ALUS to introduce more Canadian farmers to regenerative agriculture and its benefits, including soil health and water resilience. The ALUS Growing Roots program is a shining example of how community-led programs can benefit farmers, communities, ecosystems, and more. #Sustainability #SoilHealth #Agriculture
ALUS and General Mills are pursuing an expansion of the community-led regenerative agriculture program, Growing Roots, after 115 producers created 234 projects across more than 12,000 acres of farmland in two years. The success of the pilot speaks to the desire of farmers and ranchers for strategies that support local decision-making and deliver environmental and social benefits. “Farmers look to each other to find guidance and support, and ALUS helps create the community needed for this," says Tannis Axten, TAC member and owner-operator of Axten Farms. https://lnkd.in/gJd7mdKj Photo: ALUS/JP Media #soil #environment #resilience #farming

What's better than a delicious trail mix bar? One that not only satisfies your taste buds but also contributes to a healthier planet. Enter Erin Schutt, associate manger supporting the global nuts category at General Mills. Erin has played a key role in advancing our ingredient sourcing efforts and fostering strong supplier relationships. Her latest achievement is securing regenerative almonds for the new LÄRABAR Trail Mix Bars, where more than half the almonds in every bar are grown using regenerative farming practices. “Our journey involved visiting almond orchards in California to ensure they aligned with our sustainability goals and then securing enough almonds to meet our volume requirements. This is General Mills’ debut with regenerative almonds. We're making a positive impact on the environment while responding to consumer demands." Navigating this new territory wasn’t without challenges. “This is a new practice among growers and there’s still much to learn and refine. We've had to stay agile amidst uncertainties.” If you've tried the new LÄRABAR Trail Mix bars, let us know what you think! #GeneralMillsLife #HeartofGeneralMills #EmployeeSpotlight
