The Soil Summit

“There were many excellent webinars.

I have been to sessions with Elaine Ingram several times but her recorded interview was outstanding and learning about her research should be essential for everyone.

Vandana Shiva has been a mentor for me over many decades. Her interview was most inspiring. I have read many of her books and articles and I referenced her several times in my article on Agroecology in the 2021 summer edition of Ecological Farming in Ontario.

Dr. Stephanie Seraff provided very important information on the negative health impacts of glyphosate and its “toxic legacy” and why it is essential to educate all of us as to why glyphosate and other dangerous chemicals must be eliminated from food production, processing and distribution.

Chris Boettcher, Chris Trump, Anna Jones-Crabtree, Annamarie Klippenstein, and Nicolette Richer were very informative as well.”

The Soil Summit 

Brilliant exposé from a brilliant composter, and reassuring! Trust one's instincts, and learn from mistakes. Since understanding the microbiology in the soil, I've realized just how important feeding root systems is, and how BD preps work towards this. Many many thanks, Gaby and Natalie❣️

Year-End Vision Prep Workshop

Hi Natalie and Leslie, a quick thank you for the visioning workshop. It is one factor among many that has things moving and shaking inside me as I contemplate what am I doing with / in my life? One thing I particularly appreciated in the workshop was your open sharing about personal aspects of your own journey.

KN

Year-End Vision Prep Workshop

Your Year-End Vision Prep session was nurturing and insightful. I love all the imagery of 'composting opportunities' and the discussion about seasons. Although I don’t have the connection of farming, the restorative wellness aspects speak loudly to me. So glad I joined!

Well done to both of you for a welcoming, safe, relaxing, interactive, and thought-provoking session. I look forward to tilling these ideas and watching the growth to come;)

KH, Illinois

Year-End Vision Prep Workshop

Good afternoon to you both, Natalie and Leslie, for this powerful visioning follow up, your support, and clarity for a truly regenerative life.

The takeaway for me was Leslie's counsel asking my heart the question about where is my support. Looking at this with fresh, observant eyes daily will give me at least a page of people around me every day that I can be grateful for their efforts to offer me support.  This will be extremely important as I move forward, as important as breathing.

I am grateful for you both and send support and love to you both knowing this is a journey and what you have put into making it this far.

The Gardening Summit

I'd have to say Cate Stillman was probably my favorite session yesterday just because I connected more deeply to the topic and found she has a very spirited way of communicating. However, I found all speakers amazing and there were too many takeaways to name. I loved the whole experience and am looking forward to today's speakers!

Natalie and Leslie, I'm so happy to know about the work you do and how you have been bringing a community of people together who carry a strong message about caring for ourselves and the soil. The conference is terrific and I feel so inspired by the speakers. I'm taking in what I can as a newbie and will consider an online subscription to Heart & Soil Magazine to carry the benefits and blessings forward. Thank-you

Eat Wild Weeds Challenge

Life is all about perspective ⭐️

Thank you for accepting an invisible listener…I was a newbie to wild edible plants and ZOOM! Your presentation was marvelous…just the right amount of information presented in a relaxed manner.

After day 2 I went to one of my weed books and viewed the plants in a whole different context. No longer was I identifying weeds for what WOULD KILL THEM but for what to HARVEST for the evening salad. Life is all about perspective!

7 in 7 Yoga Challenge

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! The flexibility to practice at home (especially with a tight schedule!) and to reschedule if necessary.

Julie Bradley-Low, The Farmer Yoga Teacher

7 in 7 Yoga Challenge

I loved how all movements were either tailored to my current issues, issues I may experience while farming, and my general well-being. I felt like the classes were really meant for me, and I could tell you took time to plan out the lessons.

Julie Bradley-Low, The Farmer Yoga Teacher

7 in 7 Yoga Challenge
