Jul 19, 2022

Consumers are eating exactly what they're told, how they're told, where they're told, not asking questions and just showing up to the register, voting and supporting a system that actually is continuing to ensure and perpetuate that they will eat unhealthy food. We're going to do our part at Roam Ranch and Force of Nature which is to fix the broken food system but we need help. - Robby Sansom + Taylor Collins

Force of Nature is on a mission to improve our environment and health through regenerative agriculture while answering the community's call for food raised in a way that truly aligns with their values.

The term “regenerative” means that the agriculture systems in which this food was raised honor the systems within Mother Nature. We care for the soil, respect diversity in plants and animals on the land, and focus on natural outcomes versus synthetic inputs.

That means no tilling, no synthetic chemicals, no hormones or antibiotics, and beautiful, wide-open spaces. The result is what you expect.

Disrupting the Big Food Industry

We spent the last decade studying regenerative agriculture at ranches all over the world before we answered the community’s call to launch Force of Nature.

Never before has a company founded on the principles of regenerative agriculture, curated a vast collection of land stewards, ranchers, and farmers who are committed to creating a positive return on the planet.

Our mission is to accelerate the creation of a global regenerative supply network, to justify our supplier partners’ efforts on the land, and to offer consumers the awareness and the ability to vote for a system that aligns with their values.

By reclaiming the legacy of meat, we will benefit all stakeholders of the planet and restore regenerative principles to their rightful place as the keystone to our agricultural system.

Regenerative Farming is Better

1. Meat that is more delicious and nutritious than anything else you can buy, including organic and traditional grass fed.
2. Animals that are raised with honor in their respected natural environments, eating foods they are supposed to eat.
3. A quality of life for ranchers and their communities that has been lacking for decades in the conventional system.
4. A proven solution to our climate challenges with the power to sequester carbon and prevent many of the environmental disasters we face today.

Power Quotes From The Show

Omnivorous Truth: Starving with Our Bellies Full

"As a culture, as a species, we are starving with our bellies full. We are seeing plummeting fertility rates, chronic diseases, obesity, and children are dying. That is why we should all be caring and having this conversation that looks directly back at our food and the land on which everything is dependent upon." - Taylor Collins

Revealing Food Industry Lies

"Big Food, Big Agriculture, Big Oil, Big Chemical, and Big Pharma are all tied together in our food system and they support the left side party, the right side party, and all that flow of money says, 'Don't mess up this machine.' If you look at what's going on with social media and the internet as they try to censor conversations, we need consumers to break out of their mold and become independent thinkers to stop allowing themselves to perpetuate the myths and the lies that they have been fed for years and to look at what's really happening in the food industry. A value meal at Chic-fil-A is more expensive than buying regenerative protein and whole vegetables to make a meal together as a family." - Robby Sansom

Healing with Regenerative Ranching

"If my wife was still vegan today she would either be dead or in a wheelchair. We ditched the vegan diet and began to eat in an evolutionary consistent manner. Within days, years of symptoms we had just went away." - Taylor Collins

About Force of Nature

Robby Sansom | Co-Founder / CEO / Land Steward at Force of Nature MeatsTaylor Collins | Founder of EPIC Provisions, Practiced Land Steward

 Roam Ranch is located in the heart of the majestic hill country, roam ranch sits on 600 acres of awe inspiring river bottom land on the outskirts of Fredericksburg, Tx.

Started by first generation farmers, Katie and Taylor's journey into ranching was based on a vision to positively impact large-scale agriculture through producing nourishing food that improves the lives of animals, enriches the health of consumers, and regenerates the land on which we depend.

Like much of the world, this once-fertile region has been industrially farmed for the past 100 years.

Through persistent tilling of soil, planting of monoculture row crops, and overgrazing, ROAM Ranch was not capable of producing food upon its purchase. Land in this condition is often deemed "unsalvageable" and in many circumstances further degenerates with rest- but we are going to prove otherwise.

Force of Nature Meats partners with regenerative ranchers to bring you the best meat on the planet, for the planet. 

With the intention to accelerate the creation of a global regenerative supply network. Never before has a company founded in the principles of regenerative agriculture curated a vast collection of land stewards, ranchers, and farmers who are committed to creating a positive return on the planet. Force of Nature now exists to give consumers the ability to vote for environmental regeneration by consuming meat that is actually good for the planet.
