Soil is not a dirty word

Summary

What you feed the soil, you

feed yourself!

In his riveting new book, Soil is Not A Dirty Word, Craig Castree shares

urgent insights into the symbiotic relationships between plants and the

microscopic worlds of bacteria and fungi that sustain them. This book will

transform the way you see the ground beneath your feet.

During his three-year dive down the rabbit hole to discover the shocking

truths hidden in soil, Castree discovered that our understanding of soil has

been fundamentally flawed for over 80 years.

While soil might not be the typical topic of conversation, it’s time it became

a priority. Modern agricultural practices promised increased productivity

but have instead led to diminishing returns. Our topsoil—the thin layer

that nourishes the planet—erodes at an alarming rate, and autoimmune

diseases rise as the soil microbiome becomes more disconnected from

plant and human microbiomes.

Soil is Not A Dirty Word goes beyond just sounding the alarm, it offers a

solution after solution to the problems most of us never knew we had with

soil. With a regenerative approach that revitalises the soil, reduces reliance

on chemical inputs, and restores its nutrient density, Castree’s strategies

promise to revolutionise edible gardening, farming, and growing food plants.

This isn’t just a manual for gardeners and farmers—this is a call to action for

anyone concerned about our planet’s future, our health, and the legacy we

leave for generations to come.
