Living Soil
There are living things in the soil that not only create the health of the soil but also the health of plants.
Consider:
If plants are healthy then,
they are full of nutrition and full of flavour.
To recap:
- the right number and kind of living things in the soil equals;
- healthy soil which equals;
- healthy plants which equals;
- flavour and nutrition.
Not bags from the local garden supply store, but living organisms in the soil create healthy soil, needed for healthy plants.
Let that sink in for a moment.
The research behind this work has been built since 1982 when Dr Elaine Ingham and her colleagues tested to see if the living elements of the soil were necessary for plant growth. Spoiler alert they were necessary, every single one.
Dr Ingham called the complex workings of these living organisms “The Soil Food Web”
FRUSTRATED BY SCIENCE
Explaining the Soil Food Web to a friend that replied with two fascinating responses:
- If there’s no food involved why is it called the soil FOOD web?
- And for that matter, if there are no spiders involved why the WEB part?
I had to chuckle, but she was right. Science isn’t always easily understood.
Science can have a lot of big words and jargon that for the most part can confuse trying to understand what most of us want to know:
- What is it?
- Why do I care?
- How do I use it?
And so this course was born.
A simple to understand course about the living elements of soil.
