Good Health from Good Food-- It all depends on Good Soil

From chronic disease to broken communities.

Regeneration offers a path to restore what matters most.

By: Gabe Brown

Here’s the plain truth: America’s in trouble because we’ve broken our relationship with land, food, and one another. We’ve traded nourishment for convenience, community for consolidation, and health for hollow calories.

Regeneration is not just about farming—it’s about returning to principles that build life instead of extracting from it. This is a vision that begins with soil, but stretches all the way to the supermarket shelf, the hospital bed, the classroom, the military base, and the dinner table. It’s about restoring integrity across the entire supply chain—from the soil to the machine, from the farmer to the eater.

I’m not proposing another government program. I’m advocating for a cultural awakening that encompasses the entire supply chain.

The Carbon Chronicles

from Understanding Ag, written by Brian Dougherty

It will be well worth your time to take a few minutes to read this 2800 word, three part essay that will succinctly, yet clearly, introduce you to the carbon cycle, it's place in the long term health of the planet as well as its short term cycles foundational to the health of our farming, our food and, consequently, the health of US.  Carbon has become an oft referenced element in our society to the point where we glaze over at its mention.   This essay will help tie all the loose ends together in your mind and create a cohesive understanding leaving you with a reverence for this mystically complex system so fundamental to our "carbon based lifeform".

Just Food

When we are willing to sacrifice the principles of

honesty, fairness, responsibility, compassion and respect for the sake of

jobs, income, wealth, prestige or power,

we are given unemployment, poverty, hatred and helplessness in return – in full, good measure, pressed down.

“As you give, so shall you receive.”
