Scott and his team did an amazing job this fall. 24 bioreactors. 24! That’s over 400 bags of leaves now on a journey to 2024 use. 400 bags were also used for two new field improvement experiments. Can anyone count the number of bioreactors full and composting? Can anybody see Scott in the middle there? Congratulation to Scott and his amazing team. Well done all!

Scott’s favorite FDC podcasts and videos
Hi everyone, this is a grab bag of YouTubes & Podcasts that have been big for me. I would suggest starting with the John Kempf interviews from his Regenerative Agriculture Podcast. The Youtube videos that follow are also excellent. Interview with Derek Axton – Canadian “disciple” of Gabe Brownhttp://regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com/intercropping-and-regenerative-soil-management-with-derek-axten Hay/Dairy, Alvin Peacheyhttp://regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com/episode-68-alvin-peachey Hayfields/Forage/Cover Crop, Rick Clarkhttp://regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com/episode-77-rick-clark Orchard, Steven Bierlinkhttp://regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com/episode-70-steven-bierlink Innovative Vineyard, Kelly Mulville https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cDovL3JlZ2VuZXJhdGl2ZWFncmljdWx0dXJlcG9kY2FzdC5jb20vcnNz/episode/YjBmZDA3NjAtMGQ5Mi00YTU0LTgyZGEtYTViZGMzMmFjOGQy Gabe Brownhttp://regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com/from-dirt-to-soil-with-gabe-brown &http://regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com/social-impacts-of-regenerative-agriculture-with-gabe-brown John Kempf interview of David Johnsonhttp://regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com/microbial-communities-for-carbon-sequestration-with-david-johnson Vermicomposthttp://regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com/episode-72-nicole-masters Youtube features Starts as a primer.

Will soil regeneration improve plant nutrient density?
The study authors are asking for citizen scientists to help confirm these findings. Well, that’s what ONfungi is doing in 2022 already. So please. Join in. Make a real difference with science! One of the key experimental cycles for ONfungi in 2022 is looking at how ONfdc (fungal dominant compost) can work with other soil-building techniques — such as minimal plowing (no till), cover crops, and diverse crop planting — to improve plant nutrient density. In fact, we have been able to purchase a refractometer to measure plant nutrition thanks to our 2021 ONfungi citizen science supporters! In the article “Farms following soil-friendly practices grow heatlhier food” we see that…

Bioreactor huddled masses
Our 2 month old bioreactors huddle under a foggy Canadian snow blanket, hoping for an early spring.
