Kellogg Company has announced a milestone in its efforts to support farmers and nurture the planet through its Origins project.

Ahead of World Environment Day, June 5, Kellogg Company has announced a milestone in its efforts to support farmers and nurture the planet through its Origins project.

In a new blog post, Amy Senter, Chief Sustainability Officer for the Kellogg Company, wrote that the company has now worked with more than 440,000 farmers around the world to protect soil health, water, and the climate. 

One way Kellogg is supporting the preservation and restoration of ecosystems is through our Kellogg’s Origins program. Each Origins project is developed through unique partnerships between with farmers, suppliers and trusted experts to bring restorative agriculture to the mainstream.

Restorative agriculture, simply put, refers to farming practices that rebuild a farm’s topsoil and protect surrounding ecosystems. The tactics in Origins projects are tailored to meet the needs of farmers around the world and to deliver real progress against specific sustainability challenges.

The company’s approach is to respond to the needs of farmers around the world, as they seek support to transition to new practices that support ecosystem and community resiliency. To date, they have collaborated with more than 440,000 farmers in 29 countries, and that work will continue.
