For the next conversation in our intermittent series on what regenerative cultivation looks like in our world-at many levels, Cultivating Place is speaking this week with Dr. Garrett Liles, cofounder and faculty affiliate of the Center for Regenerative Agriculture and Resilient Systems at California State University, Chico.
The Center is all about caring cultivation of place, understanding and supporting better systems, and training the next generation in the ethos and the practices.
The Center is directed by nationally recognized regenerative agriculture leader, Dr. Cynthia Daley, an educator, researcher, and advocate, who joined CSU Chico’s faculty in 1998. Between 2016 and 2019, Dr. Daley, along with Dr. Tim LaSalle and Dr. Garrett Liles, created the Center for Regenerative Agriculture & Resilient Systems.
Today, the Center is a nationally respected hub for interdisciplinary research, producer education, student engagement, and policy outreach.
Dr. Liles has been mentored by and is a colleague of Dr. Daley and Dr. LaSalle, expanding on and adding to the longstanding work of sustainable agricultural practice at Chico State–past, present, and future-for the benefit of all people and places. Listen in!
