Native Echoes - Listening to the...

Kent Nerburn

From the grandeur of the Great Plains to the solitude of the northern woods, from the intensity of a summer storm to the quiet redemption of a fresh blanket of snow, Kent Nerburn's Native Echoes pays homage to the power of the land to shape our hearts and spirits. 
 
An Ojibwe elder once counseled Nerburn to "always teach by stories, because stories lodge deep in the heart.'' Using skills learned from Native storytellers as well as a deep reverence for the world's spiritual traditions, Nerburn takes us to an Ojibwe burial, down lonely winter roads, and into landscapes where trees have presence and the earth is made alive by the mystical power of water and light. 
 
Native Echoes is a stark, poetic work that honors both Native American traditions and our western way of thinking and believing. NAPRA Review calls it a ''beautiful book that will touch not only those who find Spirit in Native American paths, but anyone who has felt the presence of something powerful beyond the known.''

Soil is not a dirty word - A...

Craig Castree

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.
