Today the sun is shining.
The sky is blue.
Plants are blooming.
Leaves are shooting (not literally).
The world looks alive and vibrant.
A few years ago, Ben heard a talk by Zach Bush, MD.
It was about food and health and our guts and the gazillions of microbes living happily inside our insides.
And soil.
Healthy food = healthy guts.
Healthy guts = happy heart, healthy mind.
And healthy soil = healthy food.
Yet soil is a limp, pale shadow of its former self. Sucked lifeless by industrial grade agriculture.
Dead soil = dead people.
Zach's talk planted a seed, you might say.
Who knows where it will go / grow.
For now Ben is keen to learn how he might help breathe life back into these wilting lands.
And to learn, he talks.
With Jaap Fris and Niels Moshagen on the Good Conversation podcast (and Matt Tipping and Julian Robertson and many others over recent weeks too).
Last week we talked about how #regenerative ideas are relevant beyond farming.
Ideas like #collaboration and #connection, #diversity and #growth. About #ownership and giving back more than you take.
Next week we're talking the farm of the future - Jaap and Niels’s motivation. A farm as a place to #renew, #regenerate. Not just grow #food.
Join us Monday at 1430 (UK time).
