    'Dirt to Soil' chronicles a soil health pioneer's journey to regenerative agriculture


    Here's a new book on regenerative agriculture. Again, carbon farming has the potential to remove carbon from the atmosphere and help REVERSE climate change! We need to support incentives for carbon farming - see CalCAN website to learn more: California Climate and Agriculture Network (CalCAN) - https://calclimateag.org


    'Dirt to Soil' chronicles a soil health pioneer's journey to regenerative agriculture

    "Brown realizes he is doing more with less: zero fertilizer and fungicide or pesticide applications. Keeping the ground covered with either cover crops or cash crops at all times, and feeding livestock on the cover crops, improves cash flow. Meanwhile, the dirt he began farming in 1981 has turned into soil, full of microbial activity and improving every year."

    It is possible to do veganic farming - farming without any animal inputs (manure, raising livestock, etc. which have HUGE environmental costs and high carbon footprints). Eating an increasingly whole foods, plant-rich diet and reducing our consumption of meat not only greatly reduces our carbon footprint, 1) a plant-rich diet, 2) supporting carbon farming, and 3) turning food waste into compost for carbon farming can actually remove carbon from the atmosphere.
