Cultivating Balance: Soil Health and the Power of Moderation with Brad Turner

Healthy soil is the foundation of healthy food, thriving farms, and sustainable communities. In this episode, we sit down with Brad Turner, an expert in soil health, to explore why balance and moderation are key principles in successful farming.

Brad shares insights into:

--The role of soil biology, chemistry, and structure in supporting healthy crops

Why overusing fertilizers, pesticides, or even water can do more harm than good

--How farmers and gardeners alike can adopt moderation to improve yields without sacrificing long-term soil health

--Practical steps for maintaining nutrient-rich, resilient soils

Whether you’re a grower, gardener, educator, or just curious about where your food comes from, this conversation will deepen your understanding of soil as a living system—and why cultivating balance is the best way forward.
