Published: Mon, 04/30/18
Hey there ,
It's Raleigh again, happy Monday!
I know I've been bombarding your inbox over the weekend, but today is the last day to sign up for the Life in the Soil Classes
before the offer expires at 11:59 PM PST.
(Use the discount code rwapril)
Just wanted to let you know about that before the deadline passes, and send today's Q&A replay your way.
What Other Students Learned in the Classes...
To date, there have been hundreds and hundreds of students who have gone through the classes and started restoring soil biology. To give you a good overview, I just wanted to share a few stories from students who recently went through the classes in the last year
alone.
And of course, here's what Shane Plath, an organic banana farmer on 1500 hectares had to say...
"I was in a desperate situation as our farm was fast becoming less and less
productive, and high input costs where causing an unsustainable situation, despite us making our own compost, and farming “organically” for years. But why where we battling?! I was bewildered and at a total loss as to how best to move forward and yet remain organic…
This point in my life was one of my personal darkest moments, I was desperate and grasping, searching for guidance. I was questioning everything I knew, doing and achieving as a
grower.
I stumbled upon the Soil Food Web courses in May of 2016
while doing various google searches in my quest to fix the serious production problem we found ourselves in. By June 2016 I earnestly began working through all Soil Food Web courses. I was so excited about all that I was learning that I in some way rushed through the course material to get through so that I could immediately, without delay implement what I had learned with Dr Elaine and the Soil Food Web team, because we needed an urgent immediate turn around on the farm, as serious cracks
were forming in our business and organic farming model.
While working through the course material at night as well as on weekends, I was instantaneously implementing changes on the farm during the day, this happened nearly daily during my initial study period and continues even now.
Not only have I/we been able to improve our infield banana growth vigor, but improve yields, fruit quality,
taste and improve shelf life too. I’m by no means fully competent, because I'm always learning. As time passes, and as the beneficial organisms in the soils become more and more prevalent I realize how bad our soils were. It’s astounding how the soil productivity improves and then keeps improving as the conditions remain favorable for this.
I would like to give God all the glory for what’s been achieved on the family farm, which could have not been possible without the help of Dr. Elaine Ingham and the Environment Celebration Team."
-Shane Plath, April
2018
Those are just a few stories from the 1100+ people who have taken these classes with Elaine
over the years.
If you enroll, here's the results you can expect...
1. A fundamental understanding of Soil Biology and the Soil Foodweb,
and the knowledge you need to start creating compost and compost tea treatments in gardens, farms, ranches, and landscapes.
2. If you implement the steps in this course, you will be able to increase your yields massively, reduce your input costs (as much as 80-90%), learn how to create amazing compost yourself, and secure the fertility of your land with the
right compost treatments.
3. You will be able to read and analyze soil health.
You won’t merely guess if you’re soil is healthy or not, you will be able to monitor it, and adjust so you can have the right plan to create compost and improve soil fertility, no matter how degraded your soil is.
3. You will have all the resources (video classes, expert access, recordings, tutorials, practical demonstrations, and quizzes) you need to feel confident with soil
restoration.
4. You will be able to lay out a recovery plan by using the right compost and compost tea treatments.
5. You will know how to promote the right micro-organismsspecifically targeted for what you want to grow, whether that’s vegetable crops, hemp, bamboo, greenhouse plants, trees, or
grasses.
6. You will stop wasting hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars on fertilizers and compost treatments that don't
actually work.
7. You will be able to treat your soil so you can increase yields, decrease weeds and crops illnesses, and stop the process of soil degradation in its tracks. Whether it’s 1000 square feet, or 1000+ acres, you’ll have a roadmap for restoring
productive soil.

We just did a great Q&A session earlier today which you can watch by clicking the Q&A Replay Link below. She went into questions about composting manures and wastes, protecting your plants from pests, and scaling up your compost and compost tea operations. Definitely give it a watch if you want to learn
more.
