Although I will never approach the scale of your operation I truly like what you’re doing. Thanks for sharing

SOIL IS EVERYTHING, especially as it relates to the health of all living organisms. This man TOTALLY gets it from beginning to end. Observe nature, mimic it, and don’t try to manipulate it.

As for his business model, farmer/rancher Gabe Brown (North Dakota) has been practicing and teaching a similar approach for a number of years. We desperately need more farmers and ranchers to get on board. Unfortunately, we’re running out of time because the powers that be are doing everything they can to manipulate us, and Step 1 is CONTROL THE FOOD.

Lastly, many people blame farmers and criticize them for wanting to make a profit. Ha! Who else goes to work for free? No one. Furthermore, it’s not the farmers who have been profiting, it’s the middle men. Farm to table is the best option in many cases. And if people would stop buying highly processed food, it would put a hurtin on those businesses, then the whole system dynamic would begin to shift.

Awesome information and video. Compost tea applied to foliage has been shown to not be impacted greatly when applied during the day vs nighttime. Can I ask if it was a tea or extract that you applied?

Would be nice to have Corey’s compost class online with microscope observations. How can he make this happen?
