The health of soil is inextricably tied to the health of us all.
Everything begins and ends with soil, and only by respecting and putting soils first do we begin to see ecosystem health return and blossom into something truly special.
Together, we can begin to reverse the damage that’s been done from a century of destructive chemical farming.
Through practices like cover-cropping, no-till, chop & drop, and composting, we can improve soil quality over time and build better food systems which put the health of people, ecosystems, and the planet first.
A regenerative garden is one that focus on soil health and ecosystem health. Regenerative gardens recognize and pay homage to their interconnectedness within the local ecology, the larger biome, and ultimately the entire planet.
They strive to function in a way that harmonizes with the Earth, and have much further-reaching effects than simply producing food for the gardener.
In the gardening community, we see a lot of emphasis and focus on techniques, tips, and tricks. What we don’t see nearly enough of is focus on how specific techniques fit into the context of a larger mindset of ecosystem health.
Too little attention is given to larger holistic understanding, in favor of a quick trick or for fighting with this or that pest.
If we learn to think for ourselves and understand the overarching regenerative mindset, though, we have the framework that informs our own choices for specific practices and techniques.
Once you get the mindset right, the fog clears and choices in the garden become much more obvious and straightforward, resulting in a mental self-sufficiency which allows you the confidence to make the right decisions in your garden.
You won’t need to rely on the tricks and techniques of others to inform your practices. You won’t need to buy all the bottles, fertilizers, gimmicky products, and coaching coarses to garden anymore.
Instead, you learn to look towards nature as your guide and grow your garden holistically in a way that synergizes with nature. You’ll find the way to go with the flow, rather than fight against it.
Your gardens will have a chance to thrive in a way they never have before.
Our goal here at Learn Dirt is to help you to see the full picture of the regenerative gardening mindset, which will inform all your garden choices and act as your guide into a brighter future for everyone to share.
If you’re new to regenerative gardening and want to improve you soil naturally, or are looking to expand your understanding of the mindset behind the choices we make in regenerative agriculture, you’re in the right place.
Welcome in, we're so glad you’re here!
