About Henry
I’m Dr. Henry Russell - or just Henry - and I founded Russell Regen to support the transition to food and farming systems that serve life, not just productivity.
This work lives at the intersection of:
Regenerative farming
Systems insight and policy awareness
Facilitation and group process
I bring a mix of field credibility and reflective depth. I’m not here to preach a framework - I’m here to help you uncover what truly fits your context, and to walk with you as you make it real.
Why this work matters to me
I’ve worked across the supply chain, in academia, and in consultancy - and I kept seeing the same thing:
Too many people doing the right things… but still feeling stuck, siloed, or burned out.
So I began to ask:
“What would it take for regenerative change to really stick?”
That’s where Holistic Management and Integral Facilitation came in - two approaches that changed how I see land, people, and decision-making.
They gave me tools not just to advise… but to guide.
What I bring
Real-world tools:
I’m one of only a handful of Savory Institute–Accredited Professionals in the UK, trained in Holistic Management.
Systems facilitation:
I’m also the only Certified Integral Facilitator® in the UK focused on regenerative agriculture and food systems - a credential that blends mindfulness, psychology, and group process design.
Strategic range:
I support individual farms, cross-sector partnerships, and policy-linked pilots. I’ve worked with councils, NGOs, academic institutes, and local food networks.
Values-led focus:
I only work with projects that align with a deeper vision - where the process matters as much as the outcome.
My approach
• Listen first •
• Work from context, not assumptions •
• Stay relational - even in technical work •
• Design for outcomes and transformation •
You’ll find me just as comfortable designing a grazing plan as I am holding space for 20 stakeholders with competing interests.
