Webinar Description:

Many consumers are drawn to the health benefits and premium quality of pasture raised meats – both excellent reasons to raise animals on grass. Join Josh for this discussion about how he got started and what it takes to successfully raise pasture pork. A recording of this webinar will be available.

Speaker: Joshua Noiseux, Evermeadow Farm, Cobourg

Joshua Noiseux is a philosopher ecologist with “boots on the ground”.  After years in academia, studying the philosophy and political theory of ecology and agency, Josh put his PhD thesis on on hold to start Evermeadow Farm in 2020. He holds an MA in political and cultural theory and has worked in diverse trades, including gold exploration and arboriculture.  Now a respected voice in the regenerative agriculture space, Josh has guest lectured at Ivey Business School, Trent and Queen’s Universities, and presented at numerous conferences and panels, including with the Ecologicial Farmer’s of Ontario (EFAO) and the National Farmers Union (NFU).  Entering his 5th year at the helm of Evermeadow, Josh is looking forward to further actualizing his vision of landscape scale ecological restoration, and deepening community resilience through the marriage of environmental conservation and agricultural production.
