Why soil health?
Healthy, sustainable food and gardening: By paying attention to the entire soil ecosystem, you can have a much better idea of how to address gardening and food growing issues you see above ground.
Healthy families: Eating more diverse and fresh foods that come from healthy soil provides you with a healthier diet.
Healthy yields and profits: Healthy soil can increase yields, hold more water and sequester carbon, increase nutrient density of food, reduce the need for pesticides, and reduce pests and disease.
