Sustainable Success: Greg Brann’s Regenerative Farming Insights
Allen County, Kentucky – February 21, 2025 – Greg Brann’s remarkable path in regenerative farming reveals a decades-long commitment to sustainable land management and the miracles of nature.
From his early days on a family farm on the Tennessee-Kentucky line to his influential role as a soil scientist and consultant, Greg has consistently championed innovative practices that enhance the health and productivity of the land.
“We think there are no miracles anymore, but there are,” Greg muses. “A seed is a capsule of life, and just that right there, to me, is a miracle. Then if you manage that leaf area, you’re going to turn sunlight into a human product. It’s magical.”
Greg’s approach includes techniques like rotational grazing, silvopasture, and hay rolling to optimize land use without overextending it. However, he notes that intensive farming practices have led to common issues among landowners, particularly with soil fertility.
“[Avoid] thinking that you must have the animal eat off every bit of blade every time it comes out, because that weakens the plant. If you delay the harvest some, you’ll get rewarded… there’s a time for everything”, Greg explains.
Beyond his own farm, Greg actively consults with organizations like the Organic Association of Kentucky (OAK) and the National Grazing Lands Coalition (Nat GLC), providing mentorship and developing grazing plans for Climate Smart Grant participants.
His Annual Pasture Walk, now in its 26th year, continues to attract land managers eager to learn and implement regenerative practices.
