A conversation with the regenerative farmer and entrepreneur Fausto Araújo.

Alongside his partner Maria Pussig, Fausto has spent the last five years transforming his family’s estate, Quinta do Pinheiro, in Guimarães, Portugal, into a pioneering lab of what it looks like to produce food more wisely.

Together we explore Fausto’s story of becoming. What is syntropic farming and how it differs from mainstream agriculture. Some of the challenges and learnings of managing a farm. And, among much more, how Fausto feels about our collective future.
