The Green Farm Collective is hosting a landmark event at the Great Yorkshire Showground later this month.

The inaugural Soil to Slice conference is being held on 20 May and is a one-day event dedicated to exploring how regenerative agriculture can strengthen and connect the entire food supply chain.

It’s hoped the conference will bring together farmers, millers, bakers, food businesses, researchers and supply chain partners to share practical insights, real-world case studies and collaborative solutions.

With increasing pressure on farm profitability, soil health, climate resilience and market

transparency, Soil to Slice aims to demonstrate how regenerative principles can deliver tangible benefits not only on farm, but throughout processing, retail and consumption.

Event line-up

The programme will feature:

• Expert speakers from across the arable, milling and baking sectors

• Farmer-led case studies on regenerative transitions

• Discussions on supply chain collaboration and value distribution

• Practical strategies for improving resilience and profitability

• Networking opportunities for cross-sector partnerships

“Soil health is the foundation of our food system,” says Michael Kavanagh from the Green

Farm Collective. “But lasting change happens when everyone in the chain understands their role and shares in the value created. Soil to Slice is about building those connections and creating practical pathways forward.”

According to Michael, by connecting primary producers directly with processors and end users, the event should showcase how healthy soils underpin food quality, business performance and consumer trust.
