How Does Your Farmer Measure Up?
Feeding the soil to work for us is the only path forward for comprehensive long-term healing of ourselves and the planet. Currently, we are overworking the soil, killing off and or starving the livestock beneath our feet, with most of our so-called sustainable practices.
There are a multitude of ways to balance soil nutrients and build soil where microbes deliver essential nutrients to the plant and, in turn, relay essential nutrients to animals and humans for optimal health.
The question is, do you want to experiment or begin healing?
How do you tell if the food you are eating is nutrient-dense? What practices and tools are available that follow the principles of how soil works? Are you being subjected to advertising and empty promises in the food you are eating?
