Will I love Dirt to Soil?

Here’s a fantastic book for anyone who eats food. Humble and kind, Gabe has led thousands of us farmers to change our ways through the story of his transformation. His book showcases how hard farming can be when you rely on subsidies, rob your soil of life, and sell into heartless and corrupt commodity markets.

Gabe reveals what transformation looks like with a mindset and a management change… and just how rich and rewarding farm life is when you listen to and partner with Mother Nature. And how health and community grow around you. He’s my tractor-driving trail-blazing hero. 

Gabe Brown didn’t set out to change the world when he first started working alongside his father-in-law on the family farm in North Dakota. But a series of weather-related crop disasters put Brown in desperate financial straits. He decided to quit the industrial model of food production and began experimenting with regenerative agriculture instead. He stopped using herbicides, insecticides, and synthetic fertilizers. He no-tilled diverse crops into his fields and changed his grazing practices. By doing so, Brown transformed a degraded farm ecosystem into one full of life. Brown has grown several inches of new topsoil in only twenty years… show more.
