In this episode you'll see the presentation I gave to the Rare Fruit Council of Palm Beach, and my topic was Feeding the Soil, or Soil Building. I use those terms interchangeably.

Regardless, my approach is from the organic and permaculture perspective. We're talking healthy soil, healthy plants, healthy people.

If you're one who wants to skip over everything I talk about leading up to the main topic, I've made it easy by adding chapters:
