Today we’re joined by Nigel Palmer, life long gardener and Author of The Regenerative Grower’s Guide to Garden Amendments. Nigel’s book provides practical, detailed instructions that are accessible to every grower who wants to achieve a truly sustainable garden ecosystem – all while enjoying better results at a fraction of the cost of commercial fertilizer products. These recipes go beyond fertilizer replacement, resulting in greater soil biological activity and mineral availability. They also increase pest and disease resistance, yields, and nutrient density. Using ferments, tinctures, and extracts, Nigel teaches all about how to create foliar sprays, fertilizers, and soil drenches to grow disease and pest-resistant plants, and nutrient-dense food, without the need for commercial chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or fungicides. Join us today to hear how you can regenerate and greatly enhance your own farm!

Podcast Join Taylor Henry, host and CEO of Acres USA, as he converses with Nigel Palmer, author of 'The Regenerative Grower's Guide to Garden Amendments.' In this insightful episode, they delve into Nigel's approach to sustainable and regenerative gardening practices. From the current projects in his southern New England garden to his journey in organic farming, Nigel shares valuable knowledge about garden amendments, soil health, and the impact of regenerative practices. Discover the importance of minerals, biological amendments, and organic matter, along with practical steps for fermenting plant juices and creating nutrient-rich compost. Tune in to learn how simple, nature-aligned practices can transform agricultural systems and promote ecological balance.

Healthy soils support healthy plants, create nutrient-dense foods, help create better health. It all begins with the soil. What’s good for soil biology, the “digestive system” of soil, is important for us.

An easy way to extract the goodness from nettles so we can make the most of their amazing qualities to grow healthier plants and simultaneously improving soil health. You will learn how to make Fermented Plant Juice

Why local biological material important? Theory about feeding plant it's ‘ancestors’ and the ability to change soil pH in roots....and MORE!

Regenerative gardening goes beyond organic to help restore and build soil health. I hope you'll enjoy this in depth discussion with Nigel Palmer, author of "The Regenerative Grower's Guide to Garden Amendments - Using Locally Sources Materials to Make Mineral and Biological Extracts and Ferments". Nigel and I dug into the "dirty details" of how synthetic chemical based agriculture is destroying our soils and our health, and what we can do to repair the damage and grow healthier food in gardens that are naturally pest and disease resistant.

Join us as we talk about all things homesteading! We discuss things like gardening, livestock, permaculture, food preservation, foraging, hunting, fishing, and the know-how and skills that will help you in your homesteading journey to be more self-reliant and self-sufficient.
