Dr. Elaine Ingham, one of the world’s foremost soil scientists and former podcast guest, has spent the last four decades studying the relationship between soil microbiology and plant health and helping farmers increase yield while simultaneously reducing chemical inputs. Dr. Ingham’s Soil Food Web School is being launched late December with an introductory offer of $1,600 off for the first 150 students. “Learn the most rapid & effective way to regenerate soils, protect the environment and increase profits for farmers.”

BCS products came to America in the early 1970’s at a time when Americans were re-discovering the joys of vegetable gardening and pursuing self-sufficiency. Almost forty years later, there are now many tens of thousands of BCS owners in the US and Canada. Like BCS in Italy, the mission of BCS America is to increase your productivity and reduce the physical effort required to accomplish your outdoor tasks, projects, and farm work. Now introducing the 30” spreader attachment for adding a consistent layer of compost/amendments to a standard 30” bed.

Les Jardins de la Grelinette is one of our favorite farms on the planet for so many reasons. Not only is it the setting for The Market Gardener by JM Fortier, it’s small and productive, yet warm and welcoming. Maude-Hélène has been operating the farm herself for the last several years and we get her perspective on the now famous Les Jardins de la Grelinette.
