Roots So Deep (you can see the devil down there)
“Roots So Deep (you can see the devil down there)” is a 4-part documentary series all about inventive farmers and maverick scientists building a path to soil health and farmer wealth with hooves, heart and soil.
Can an underutilized way to graze cattle, that mimics the way bison once roamed the land, help get farmers out of debt, restore our depleted soils, rebuild wildlife habitat and draw down huge amounts of carbon? Cattle have been seen as eco-villains for a long time. What if they can help save us from catastrophic climate change?
“Roots So Deep” is guided by director and wrangler of scientists Peter Byck as he meets farmers on both sides of the fence – the folks practicing an adaptive way to graze, and their neighbors set in their family’s generations-old method of doing things. Byck’s team of outcast scientists are measuring what’s happening on both sides of the fences – exploring if this adaptive grazing could help slow down climate change.

Roots So Deep (you can see the devil down there)
You all have enjoyed the clips of the carbon cowboys short films - especially "givers and takers" which features father & son farming duo Don & Patrick Jackson. The series captured the first six months of their shift from continuous grazing to Adaptive Multi-Paddock (AMP) grazing - and the changes were dramatic.
Tuesday, August 19th at 5pm PT / 7pm CT is your chance to meet them and ask questions about their journey!
It's been 10 years since filming at Pompey’s Rest - their 125-acre regenerative farm in South Carolina. On August 19, we’ll talk about what’s worked, what hasn’t, and what they’ve learned from nearly a decade of grazing differently.
Join us over on discord to get in on the conversation! discord.gg/YMs9y53X?event=1400829878453928077

Join us for a conversation with Don Jackson and his son Patrick, the farmers featured in one of the ten original “carbon cowboys” short films - "givers and takers" - which captures the first 6 months of their transition from continuous to Adaptive Multi-Paddock (AMP) grazing.
Positive changes started showing up quickly - healthier cattle, more forage, and a rise in beneficial insects. Today, Don and Patrick run Pompey’s Rest, a 125-acre regenerative farm in northwest South Carolina, and are active voices in the regenerative movement.
They’ll share lessons learned, updates from the farm, and how regenerative practices have shaped their land and livelihood over the years. discord.gg/hvDzm67v?event=1400829878453928077
