Interpret Soil Tests to Grow Abundant Gardens with Erica & Alice of Growabundant.com
Erica Reinheimer wrote in the introduction to the intelligent gardener, "Gardening has been my calling. I like the listening part. I like sitting close to the plants in the morning, being with them, connecting. Understanding how minerals contribute to the garden has deepened that connection." While Erika and Alice Reinheimer, my guests today, left their lives in high tech to, in their words, grow excellent food, eat excellent food, help people grow excellent food, play music with friends, putter around the house, backpack, meditate somatically, watch movies, drink good wine, car camp, get real, and get cats. And if that doesn't make them sound like you want to be friends with them, I don't know what will. They created , a website where gardeners, professional or personal, can get incredible insights and other little nuggets from two exceptional gardeners, or even professional advice about how to interpret and actionize soil tests. So whatever you grow, and however good you are at it, I guarantee Erika and Alice still have something to offer you. Folks who support the show...
