Advancing Food is Medicine
Connecting Regenerative Agriculture to Health Care Markets
Started in 2024, this program brings together, farmers, ranchers, doctors, nutritionists, food system experts, and advocates to learn how we can prevent disease, and create paradigm shifts in our health care and agricultural communities.

ABOUT OUR FUNDING PARTNERS
Starting in 2023, Think Regeneration has been an official partner of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Transition to Organic Partnership Program (TOPP) program, serving farmers and ranchers with economic development and community building tools to help them transition to organic farming. The program, made up of many organizations—see below—will be working together across the U.S. to:
- Connect transitioning farmers with mentors for at least one year after certification.
- Build paid mentoring networks to share practical insights and advice.
- Provide community building opportunities to include:
- Train-the-mentor support
- Technical assistance
- Workshops and field days covering topics including organic production practices, certification, conservation planning, business development (including navigating the supply chain), regulations, and marketing
- Help producers overcome technical, cultural, and financial shifts during and following certification.
- Engage educational and training institutions (including crop advisors and extension agents) on organic workforce training and education and future human capital planning.
A special thank you to the Organic Crop Improvement Association (OCIA) for its support.
