Join us in this episode as Amy Williams, who has three decades of clothing industry experience and currently serving as the CEO of Citizens of Humanity, shares insights into the transformative journey toward regenerative cotton. Amy delves into the organization’s commitment to sustainability, emphasizing their shift towards regeneratively grown cotton after recognizing the critical role of raw materials in the sustainability conversation.

Amy sheds light on Citizens of Humanity’s aspiration to revolutionize the apparel and fashion industry by advocating for regenerative cotton sourcing. Their goal is to have 50% of the cotton acres in the U.S. verified as regenerative by 2030. The surge in market demand for regenerative agriculture has prompted the Citizens of Humanity Group and its family of brands, Citizens of Humanity, AGOLDE, and GOLDSIGN, to partner with Advancing Eco Agriculture to supply regeneratively grown cotton.

This collaboration aims to increase awareness about the many benefits of regenerative agriculture, fostering a positive impact for farmers, brands, and consumers alike. The initiative will leverage AEA’s leading practices, products, and services to support farmers in the program to grow regenerative cotton and reap the benefits of healthier soils with year-after-year improvements.

In this episode, John and Amy discuss:

  • How food and clothing industries can work in parallel to promote regenerative and organic agriculture

  • How CoH works directly with farmers to source regeneratively grown cotton in the U.S.

  • Regenerative cotton as a widescale movement within the clothing industry

  • Partnering with AEA to help farmers transition to regenerative practices

  • Recycled vs new fiber development

  • The important role that mills play in the industry and adoption of trends
