Regenerative Farming with Harvest Returns and Pastureland Provisions

On this episode of Tech Bites, host Jennifer Leuzzi checks in with returning guests Chris Rawley and Austin Maness of Harvest Returns, the crowdfunding platform for farms. How have things been growing since their first appearance on Episode 168? Since the pandemic, the business has focused on two verticals, indoor farming and regenerative agriculture. Joining the conversation is Kevin Muno of Pastureland Provisions, a regenerative cattle farm that recently did a successful raise on the platform. It’s an approach that aims to solve both food supply and environmental issues with one philosophy.
