We have a little house in the suburbs and we are strong supporters of a no-till or organic farm/ranch/eco system even on a small scale. We plant cover crops in our own backyard beds to improve the quality of our clay soil. The cover crops have helped drainage because the soil is healthier. The unseen root system is vibrant. Restorative agriculture is the answer to many food chain supply issues and environmental concerns. Plants do so much more than provide food. Of course, providing food is, in itself, a Godsend. I am grateful to the farmers and ranchers that are mindful about how they raise their livestock and crops. Americans are generally willing to purchase higher quality food and most of us know how desperately we need it! We have relatives who are farmers: one is more ecologically minded than others but we support whatever method they choose. Thank you KA for supporting this in research and the marketplace.
