About this listen

Work with nature to consistently grow the highest quality produce—all while doing your part in fighting climate change and helping the environment.

Are you stressed out about…

The seemingly steady decline in both the quantity and quality of your crops?

“Technical farming problems” like soil erosion and biodiversity loss?

Climate change—how you can cope with it, and how you can be part of the solution rather than the problem?

If so, chances are you’re suffering from eco-anxiety…and unfortunately, you have good reason to do so.

According to the UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), each year, an estimated 24 billion tons of fertile soil are lost due to erosion. That’s a whopping 3.4 tons lost every year for each person on the planet.

This is quite a serious issue, considering the fact that it takes approximately 500 years for a 2.5-centimeter layer of fertile topsoil to form under agricultural conditions—and our food security ultimately depends on soil quality. But the good news is there’s a way to reverse the damage…and you can be part of the solution…through regenerative agriculture! Regenerative agriculture has countless benefits—producing nutrient-dense food, combating climate change, enhancing ecosystem biodiversity, improving air and water quality, huge savings from higher yields, using fewer synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides… the list goes on and on!

Now, if it sounds like you’re going to need technical expertise to do this… don’t worry. Understanding your soil and giving it what it needs doesn’t have to be complicated. Start with this easy-to-listen guide filled with practical advice and information on how to improve your relationship with your soil and get the most out of it! Click "Add To Cart" Now.

Not sure who it's for.

Not much science. If it was for any reader familiar with re-gen, there was nothing new; and a few obvious mistakes. If it was for those readers who weren't, there was no explanations of terms and processes, and just breezed right on past. Some editing might have helped.

Adds little of worth, terrible narration

This books reads more as a lazy cash-in on the back of the work of others. Sweeping statements and assertions abound, which is to be expected by such a criminally short publication on a complex topic (I made the error of not checking the length before purchasing) and also typical of the older style permaculture dogmatic approach.

Might be worth a read if you're a fresh beginner to soil regeneration, but there are so many better options available. If you have even basic levels of understanding then this book is unlikely to meaningfully advance them.
