How are scientists, farmers, and foodies helping heal our planet’s soil? Join us as we dig our hands into author Kristin Ohlson’s fascinating book, The Soil Will Save Us.

Summary from author Kristin Ohlson’s website:

“The granddaughter of farmers and the daughter of avid gardeners, Ohlson has long had an appreciation for the soil. A chance conversation with a chef led her to the crossroads of science, farming, food, and environmentalism. She discovered that there is a vast kingdom of creatures under our feet—billions of microorganisms in a tablespoon of soil—that take the carbon dioxide that plants pull from the atmosphere and turn it into life-giving soil carbon. Ohlson introduces visionary scientists, farmers, foodies, ranchers, and landscapers, whose work shows that earth can be healed and offers the hope that seemingly intractable problems like climate change, air and water pollution, food quality, and even obesity have the same low-tech solution.”
