Welcome to the Six Inches of Soil Podcast
Have you watched Six Inches of Soil the Documentary?
We’re digging deep—literally and figuratively—into the real stories behind the soil, livestock, plants, and people working to fight climate change and restore our planet. This isn’t just about farming; it’s about producing truly nourishing food, rebuilding our rural communities, and showing that it is possible to grow in a way that gives back. It’s simpler than you might think, fully traceable, and 100% verified.
Through our film and now this podcast, we’re starting conversations, building community, and sharing the healing power of regenerative agriculture. We’d love for you to be part of it.
So… who is Richard Tufton?
We’re thrilled to introduce Richard Tufton as the host of the Six Inches of Soil Podcast. Richard has been championing the project since day one and has helped us explore some of the trickier questions around food and farming.
With a background in agriculture from Newcastle University and over two decades of experience in the food industry—starting in the UK and now based in Austin, Texas—Richard brings a global perspective and a deep-rooted commitment to doing good. His journey has led him to regenerative farming, and is part of Regenified (founded by Gabe Brown), helping shape the future of truly sustainable food systems.
From his unique vantage point across the Atlantic, Richard will be bringing in voices from both the UK and the US—connecting dots across the food supply chain and sparking conversations that just might challenge what you think you know.
We’d love to hear what you think too. Join the conversation over on Instagram @sixinchesofsoil, and let’s grow something better together.
Tune in. Dig deep. Let’s get our hands in the soil.
