Over the last century, farmers have been encouraged to rely on unsustainable practices like chemical pesticides, monocropping (growing one crop exclusively), and repeated tilling.
In the long run, this doesn’t lead to more food….it leads to dead dirt.
Dead dirt deprives us of the nutrients we need.
And it also leads to soil erosion, as lifeless dust is running off into our rivers and oceans.
In the US, we’re losing soil 10x faster than we’re replenishing it!
Without healthy soil, there’s no food. Without food, we can’t survive.
However, there’s good news.
A handful of trailblazers are working to transform all of this — and doing an outstanding job changing minds, changing policies, and changing the way we think about soil and our food.
Their stories will warm your heart and give you hope!
This week, you can watch The Need To GROW for free.
It’s won over a dozen awards at international film festivals and features Rosario Dawson, Dr. Vandana Shiva, Paul Stamets, and others who are fighting the good fight.

>> Watch this heartwarming, inspiring, and critically important movie right now — for no charge.
Yours for great movies and great messages,

P.S. If you’re concerned about climate change, this is for you. The good news is, if we create enough healthy soil, it could pull much of the excess carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere!
This is truly exciting, and the film shines a light on how it’s possible.
Watch the whole movie now. (Free, for a limited time!)
