Congratulations to the 2022 REGAIN Mentees!
Please join us in welcoming the group of regenerative agriculture advocates and practitioners who will be participating in REGAIN’s first ever mentorship program! Modeled after the Food Systems Leadership Network’s Community Food Systems Mentorship Program, the Regenerative Ag Education & Advocacy Mentorship Program matches regenerative ag educators, advocates, and practitioners with proven and experienced leaders, creating a space for mentorship pairs to work together on topics specific to their organizational and professional development.
