 Dear Seth J,
What does soil have to do with the climate crisis? And why should everyone be concerned about soil health if they're serious about nurturing community resilience?
We'll dig into these questions—and plenty more—during our two-part online event series, The Dirt on Soil.

In the first session with David Montgomery, on Thursday, June 16, we'll learn about why soil matters and how the state of the world's soil correlates to the worsening climate crisis.
 David Montgomery is a geologist who studies landscape evolution and the effects of geological processes on ecological systems and human societies. He has written a number of popular science books, three of which won the Washington State Book Award. His recent book, Growing a Revolution: Bringing Our Soil Back to Life, focused on the potential for regenerative farming practice to reshape agriculture, and the forthcoming book co-authored with Anne Biklé, What Your Food Ate: How to Heal Our Land and Reclaim Our Health, explores the links between soil health and human health.

The second session, with Don Smith, on Thursday, June 23, will be all about action. We'll find out what others are doing and what we can do as individuals and communities, to build and nurture healthy soil.
 Don Smith is a speaker, teacher, and student of regenerative agriculture and regenerative lifestyles. He applies his lifelong knowledge advising Kiss the Ground, teaching and supporting course development for various Kiss the Ground education initiatives, including the Soil Advocate Training course. His talks are engaging, inspiring, and filled with hands-on, viable solutions to the world’s largest problems.
