This episode of the On-Farm Trials podcast features an interview with farmer Douglas Poole in

Mansfield, Washington as he describes how his trials are intended to work with the ecological

systems on his farm. Douglas shares his experiences from collaring cows to harnessing soil

microbes, planting alternative crops, hosting landlord parties to talk cover cropping and soil

health, a decades-long legacy of biosolids, and creating/conserving sage grouse habitat on the

farm.
