Great inspiring post on the priceless value of soil! My family and I are preparing to make the move to a 1 acre forested parcel, and begin our homesteading/micro-farming journey.

I've been preparing for years, with attending conferences, studying various farming and permaculture and ecology techniques and practices, and it's pretty clear that soil = life.
Often overlooked in the common practices of mono-cropping and even "re-wilding" suburban and urban areas.

Thanks for sharing your experiences! Looking forward to checking out more of your posts.
