At Salt Lab, we're driven by the simple yet powerful philosophy that wellness starts with the source—whether it's the magnesium we use in our products or the food that fuels our bodies. Not all sources are created equal, and the same goes for the food on our plates and the practices on our farms. Today, we're excited to share how we're taking this philosophy to new heights by partnering with Carbon8, a dynamic non-profit empowering Australian farmers to rejuvenate our land through regenerative agriculture.
Why Not All Farming Is Created Equal
Just like choosing between magnesium chloride and Epsom salts can make a world of a difference in your wellness routine (if this is news to you, catch up on our recent blog post here), opting for regenerative practices over conventional farming can transform landscapes and livelihoods. Regenerative methods focus on improving soil health, increasing biodiversity, and enhancing the ecosystem services that agriculture provides. By embracing these practices, we contribute to a world where our rural landscapes are not only preserved but enriched, ensuring that they continue to flourish for generations to come.
Salt Lab and Carbon8: Cultivating Change Together
In our journey to align our actions with our ethos of mindful and minimal impact production, we have discovered a kindred spirit in Carbon8. Emerging in response to the severe NSW/QLD drought of 2017, Carbon8 has become a beacon of hope for rural communities. Moving beyond short-term fixes, Carbon8 tackles the root causes of agricultural challenges, advocating for a movement that aims not just to heal the land but to fundamentally transform it. They champion the regeneration of the Country with educational initiatives, community support, and innovative programs that enhance biodiversity, restore ecological balance, and strengthen the resilience of our ecosystems.
In a partnership of resources and ideals, we’re thrilled to announce that a portion of every sale from our Regenerate Bundle will directly support Carbon8. This alliance enables us to contribute actively to their transformative programs, including Verified RegenGrown, an Australian-first verification that celebrates and communicates the regenerative journeys of farmers nationwide.
RegenGrown is an innovative verification that’s setting a new standard for sustainability in farming. This program supports farmers in their journey to regeneration and helps them share their story with the world. It’s about giving consumers the power to choose products that truly make a difference.
A Personal Journey: From Product to Producer
Adding a personal dimension to our partnership, our founder, Clementine, will engage in the RegenGrown verification for her family farm. This initiative will allow her to meticulously gauge and guide the regenerative processes on her land, ensuring that each step taken is a stride towards richer, more life-sustaining soil and more nutrient-dense produce.
We are filled with anticipation as we embark on this journey with Carbon8, eager to witness and share the fruits of this collaboration. Our commitment is to keep you informed and involved, celebrating each milestone that marks our progress in this vital cause.
