The world is desertifying at a truly alarming rate. It’s estimated that thirty footy fields of soil are lost per minute around the world. And after thousands of years of human agriculture, there may only be 60 harvests left in those soils. But if you’ve been listening to this podcast for a while, you’ll know there’s another option here – a regenerative transformation is emerging with at times staggering speed and success. And in some of my recent conversations, you’ll have heard me mention one of the brilliant – and entertaining - women leading the way.
Nicole Masters is one of the world’s most respected advocates and educators in regenerating our food and related systems. She is a systems thinker, regenerative soils educator, founding director of Integrity Soils, and author of the brilliant book ‘For the Love of Soil: Strategies to Regenerate our Food Production Systems’.
Nicole is bringing living soil into view, for farmers and other producers, and for all of us really - helping us see, value and tend, perhaps our most vital fellow living organism on the planet.
Nicole joins Anthony online from her home in Montana, USA, for a deeply personal conversation grounded in this transformative time.
