Founder of Fearless Farmers, Amy Milliron creates online and onsite regenerative farming curricula for kids of all ages. Amy advocates for regenerative agriculture as a path to reverse climate change, heal the soil and improve health.
Mom, educator, farmer, and activist, Amy came to regenerative farming by way of a deep commitment to feeding her family nutrient dense and healthful food. Starting with a successful battle to change state policies affecting nursing mothers, Amy’s advocacy and vision grew to address solutions related to the greater food supply and its impact on the health of people and planet. Join us for this candid conversation about activism, the future of farming, and the power we each can wield to bring forth positive change.

Fearless Farmers brings families and farmers together to learn from and support each other while also addressing climate change principles at the same time. It brings Amy great joy to connect children and their families to the natural processes that sustain us. When we all work together to holistically manage the collective land, we receive a gift of nutrient dense food that feeds our bodies and engages the community.

Once upon a time, Hills of Milk and Honey was an educational farm in Dripping Springs, Texas. Now, Hills of Milk and Honey develops and publishes engaging curriculum for students of all ages to participate in the Regeneration movement in an effort to drawdown carbon and reverse climate change.
Project Drawdown
Drawdown describes the 100 most substantive solutions to global warming. For each solution, we describe its history, the carbon impact it provides, the relative cost and savings, the path to adoption, and how it works. The goal of the research that informs Drawdown is to determine if we can reverse the buildup of atmospheric carbon within thirty years. All solutions modeled are already in place, well understood, analyzed based on peer-reviewed science, and are expanding around the world.
