Podcast: The Regenerative Agricultural Power of Persimmons and Biltong

Have you ever wondered how a unique, tangy persimmon vinegar and a handcrafted biltong snack can make a difference in the world? Our team joined the ReGen Brands Podcast to share how White Buffalo Land Trust is restoring our ecosystem through regenerative agriculture, and how our food brand, Figure Ate, is bringing those efforts to market with delicious offerings.

In this episode, Kyle (Director of Marketing for Figure Ate) and Jesse (Director of Land Stewardship for our parent nonprofit, White Buffalo Land Trust) dive into the origins of Figure Ate and the 1,000-acre Jalama Canyon Ranch, our living lab dedicated to regenerative agriculture.

From hosting hands-on workshops to testing new land stewardship techniques, White Buffalo Land Trust is more than just a non-profit—it’s a movement towards a resilient, eco-friendly food system. And Figure Ate? It’s the brand bringing that vision to your table.

Listen in and learn how drought-tolerant persimmons turned into a vinegar that's both eco-friendly and delicious, with an endless shelf life. Not just for salads, we also use it to marinate our beef biltong, a savory snack sourced from regeneratively-raised cattle. It’s all part of the Figure Ate mission to produce wholesome food that supports people, planet, and the broader regenerative agriculture movement.

If you’re curious about what it takes to build a food brand that truly cares, hit play and join the conversation. You’ll hear about our team’s trials, triumphs, and the big vision for a more regenerative future—one persimmon and one piece of biltong at a time.
