OUR MISSION IS TO HEAL THE PLANET FROM THE GROUND UP

The greatest challenge of our time is addressing the root

causes of global warming. A recent U.N. study concludes that

current land-use practices of agrochemical farming account

for 23% of ALL greenhouse gas emissions - with less than

60 years remaining of degrading topsoils!

 The widespread use of agrochemical applications 

has steadily been destroying the microbial cultures 

that keep the airborne carbons in check. How do we

move past high-impact chemical farming and 

create healthier ways of growing our foods? 

What if we could produce healthier, more nutritious

organic foods in higher volumes for a lower price than 

chemically grown foods? Important new discoveries are 

being made in the field of "regenerative agriculture" by 

restoring the resilience and fertility of the topsoils.

The key component to making regenerative agricul-

ture successful is the ability to increase the "fungal-to-

bacterial ratio", which detoxifies the soil, nourishes the 

root systems, restores the soil foodweb, reduces the

irrigation needs, and optimizes carbon capture.

In 1983, Robert Rodale introduced the concept of

“regenerative agriculture” as a superior means of

improving the soil’s productivity by increasing

and diversifying the biological activity.

Regenerative agriculture describes farming

and grazing practices that are designed to rebuild

degraded soil biodiversity – resulting in both airborne

carbon drawdown and improved water cycle.

 In 2012, the Rodale Institute secured the services of

Dr. Elaine Ingham as their chief research scientist - who

originated the concept of “soil foodweb health manage-

ment" as a prescription for optimizing productivity.

  As a leading soil biologist, Dr. Ingham took a step

forward in 2019 and launched the Soil Foodweb School

“to help farmers restore the soil biology, increase their

profits, and to grow food in harmony with nature.”
