Have you ever tasted a really great blueberry and wondered why it was better than a different batch? Maybe it was the way it was grown? Maybe it was affected by the health of the soil and the farming practices used to build it up?
Building up soil health isn't just a topic that should interest farmers. It should interest anyone who enjoys flavorful food!
In this episode, hear from soil and plant scientist and my co-host, Dr. Jill Clapperton as she shares insights she has gathered about the link between soil health and the flavor and health of our food.
Tasty examples Jill shares in this episode include the flavor differences that can be detected in pasture-raised beef and dairy, grains turned into bread and pasta and blueberries!
