Minimalist Moms Podcast

Confused by labels like “grass-fed,” “natural,” or “organic”? In this episode, Diane talks with Jenni Harris of White Oak Pastures about what’s really happening inside America’s industrialized food system - and why cracks are beginning to show. From fragile supply chains to soil depletion and greenwashing, they unpack the hidden costs behind cheap food and the promise of regenerative farming. You’ll learn how rebuilding soil and decentralizing food production can strengthen communities and increase resilience. This isn’t about perfection—it’s about making more intentional choices at the dinner table.Links Discussed in This Episode |Checkout the podcast storefront for recommendations from Diane.Local Resource: Yellowbird Foodshed (Local to Columbus)Previous Episode: Beyond Organic, Local, Delivered: Rethinking the Way We Grocery Shop | Benji Balmer (Yellowbird Foodshed) (EP390)Connect with Jeni + White Oak Pastures:WebsiteInstagramYouTubeBlogAbout Jenni |Jenni Harris, Will's middle daughter, is a member of
