“Understanding this process is awakening to the simple reality that nothing in this world is ever really new. Only recycled. Soil organisms are the engine of an endless reincarnation process through which land fertility is maintained.”

Wonderful piece on soil; please feel free to share widely with your communities. Again, I take this back to markets: if we as market organizers and producers can reawaken our regional bioregional and watershed communities to regrow our soil and clean our water, then I think we will have served our purpose for the Earth. How can we ensure that our work continues to transfer the knowledge needed? Good soil/bad soil comparison demos? More farm visits for our customers? Soil testing at markets?
