They discuss how leaving the soil undisturbed helps create thriving ecosystems, healthier plants, and fewer weeds. Expect earthy chat, an infamous Soil Your Undies experiment, where you can discover just how alive your soil really is, and the fascinating science showing that soil can boost your happiness, thanks to beneficial microbes.
