Welcome to another episode of Secrets of the Soil! In today's episode, we delve into the world of sustainable agriculture and soil enhancement with our guest, Sherri Symons. Sherri, also known as the embodiment of the soil, joins 'Regen Ray' Milidoni to discuss an innovative creation of Aussie wool pellets, a soil enhancement made from wool byproduct. 

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Sherri Symons on the Secrets of the Soil podcast, where we delved into her revolutionary creation of Aussie wool pellets — a soil enhancement made from wool byproduct.

Here are some key takeaways from our insightful conversation:

1. Sustainability Through Innovation: Sherri's efforts to create Aussie wool pellets not only provide a sustainable solution for wool byproduct from the shearing season but also offer numerous benefits for soil health and agriculture. The product acts as a slow-release nitrogen source, enhances water retention, aerates the soil, and serves as a natural deterrent for snails and slugs, making it a game-changer in the horticultural industry.

2. Entrepreneurial Inspiration: Sherri's journey from creating Aussie wool pellets to winning awards and participating in business programs showcases the power of entrepreneurship and the impact of networking. Her commitment to sustainable farming and leaving a legacy of regenerative agriculture for future generations is truly inspiring for aspiring entrepreneurs and environmental advocates.

3. Soil Reciprocity and Education: Sherri's passion for soil health and her dedication to educating and engaging with communities about the benefits of using wool pellets for gardening and farming is a testament to the importance of nurturing a reciprocal relationship with the soil. Her advocacy for sustainable practices and her commitment to the soil's well-being invite us to rethink our approach to agriculture and gardening.

Who is Sherri Symons

5th generation farmer from Southwest Victoria. Wool classer of 18 years. Trainer of Agriculture and wool classing at the local cafe. Owner of Aussie Wool Pellets. An innovation to utilize otherwise waste wool to create a slow-release nitrogen fertilizer, that has multiple benefits to the soil.

One of my recent posts has one that's classic SherriHow amazing wool is. The wool I'm using is not wool that we wear but rather wool that used to be used as insulation and carpet but society and business sent it overseas and now as a farmer, we can not cover the costs associated with shearing with the sale of our wool so something needed to be done incorporating wool pellets into the soil no matter what type of soil you have can be beneficial.
