This week, I welcome one of the most respected voices in regenerative agriculture: Nicole Masters. She's an agroecologist, educator, systems thinker, and author of For the Love of Soil - one of the best books I read while researching my second book FOOD. With over 25 years of hands-on experience across North America, Australasia and globally, Nicole helps farmers, land stewards and businesses rebuild ecosystems from the ground up - literally.My favourite aspect of Nicole's genius, is her dot connection and analogies that can engage anyone from anywhere to care deeply for soil and understand why soil health is not just an agricultural concern but a planetary and human-health imperative - there's no confusion: We must come together, and we must act now to turn the health of soil around to be able to turn our health around, too. We explore what's happening beneath our feet: the microbial networks, chemical dialogues and nutrient pathways that determine the resilience of entire landscapes, food systems, and ultimately our own bodies.Despite the weight of global environmental challenges, Nicole leaves us with a grounded sense of possibility. Her work demonstrates that nature is astonishingly responsive when we create the conditions for recovery - and that regeneration often begins with surprisingly small, accessible shifts.Whether you're a farmer, a gardener, a policy-maker or simply someone who eats food and wants a livable planet, this episode offers inspiration, tangible insights, and a renewed sense of agency in a time when many feel helpless.Enjoy the show, Alexx Stuart, Your Host.Fancy a few more podcasts we've done over the years, related to this one?Show #109: Joel Salatin on food, soil and regenerative effects of working with nature's systemsShow #416 Tammi Jonas PhD: Designing a Food System for All — Culturally Relevant, Nutritious, and ecologically soundShow #280 – Holistic Healing of People and Planet with Biodynamics Farmer, David McFallShow #136: Charlie Arnott on Regenerative & Biodynamic AgricultureShow #417 From Farm to Eater: Let's focus on what and who is making a difference when trying to change the food system.And more…Want to learn more about this week's guest?Website: www.integritysoils.com/coachesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/Integrity_soilsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolemasters1Nicole's book: https://bit.ly/487Z4DbThank you to this month's show partners for joining us to help you make your low tox swaps! @WatersCoFilters take everything you don't want OUT, put precious trace minerals back IN and give you a clean water solution for any situation and budget - drinking & shower. 15% of site wide Nov 1-Dec 15.

I made a rich, zero-waste mushroom soup by dry-searing slices of one of three King Oyster Mushrooms. I sweat onions in a knob of algae butter a friend brought me from France with the thought that it would add to the earthyness of the soup and Yes Sirree indeed it did! Then I  crumbled a vegetable bouillon cube into processed mushrooms and onions, about two Tspoons of flour, white wine, tamari, and Worcestershire sauce and stirred gently occassionally over a medium flame. Small touches like a milk and flour slurry, a spoon of creme fraîche, and a splash of Marsala and sherry rum pepper sauce flavored the silky body soup in a very delectable comforting flavor without any heaviness.Please find the steps I used in a list format: • dry sear for roasted mushroom flavor• onion gently sweated in butter for sweetness• vegetable bouillon and wine for depth• tamari, Worcestershire, paprika for umami and warmth• optional milk slurry for light body• creme fraîche for tang and gloss• sherry pepper or marsala for a nutty lift• roasted mushroom garnish for texture• zero food packaging waste as a core value• toast from rescued bread as a thrifty pairingI  hope you'll be so inclined to give the episode a thumbs up, share it with friends, because we've gotta be disruptors.MINDFUL MEALS & SUSTAINABLE LIVING - The Art of Living an Elevated Lifestyle

In this eye-opening episode, I unpack the shocking truth about nutrient loss in modern fruits and vegetables. A 2023 review found that today's produce contains significantly fewer vitamins and minerals than in decades past. Some nutrients have dropped by up to 80% since the 1950s!We explore how industrial agriculture, depleted soils, and synthetic fertilizers have impacted our food and, more importantly, how we as home gardeners can grow more nutrient-rich produce by focusing on soil health. Soil nerds, unite!I talk about the essential role of soil microbes and organic matter in our soil in creating nutritious food (and how synthetic fertilizers can't compete), how composting, mulching, and no-till gardening can restore soil health, and give you actionable tips for increasing nutrient density in your own garden. If you care about what goes into your food and on your family's plate, this is a must-listen.

On this episode, we have Eric Smith who is the Founder and CEO of Edacious. Edacious offers radically easy lab testing and intuitive nutrition software for food system professionals. They're working on turning nutrition data into actionable insights for people and planetary health. Eric's on a mission to redefine food quality using hard data. Through his work at Edacious, he's helping brands measure, benchmark, and communicate the nutritional value of their products so consumers can truly understand what they're eating. We explore:   Why the current Nutrition Facts Panel fails us How nutrient density can drive real market demand for regen products What kinds of data regenerative brands should be gathering now And how Edacious is building a first-of-its-kind food quality benchmarking system You'll hear Eric break down complex concepts like bioavailability and phytochemicals in clear, actionable ways – plus explain how regenerative brands can use this data to differentiate themselves in a crowded market. If we weren't already super bullish on how nutrient density can create increased demand for regenerative products, then we definitely are now. Episode Highlights:

"And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.'" - Matthew 25:40Millions of people around the world need the basic necessities of life, but even more importantly—they need the Gospel. One organization is helping them receive both. Kelly Miller joins us with an impact report.Kelly Miller is the CEO and President of Cross International, an underwriter of Faith & Finance.A Ministry Model Built on PartnershipCross International's approach to global missions is unique. Instead of working independently, they partner with local Christian organizations, churches, and nonprofits in the countries where they serve.These local partners know their communities far better than we do, and Cross International's role is to walk alongside them and help them expand on what God has already called them to do.This collaborative model not only maximizes impact but also reflects the unity of the Body of Christ as believers across the globe work together to serve those in desperate need.An Impact Report: What God is Doing Through Cross InternationalCross International's mission goes beyond charity. It is about sharing Jesus' love while addressing critical physical needs.Here's a snapshot of what God is doing through their ministry:40,000 children and adults receive food support annuallyOver 3 million servings of fortified rice were provided last year16,000 people gained access to clean, safe drinking waterHundreds of thousands received medical supplies and essential medicinesEach of these numbers represents real lives being changed—people who are now experiencing hope, stability, and the love of Christ.Serving in Crisis: Cross International's Work in HaitiHaiti has endured political instability, gang violence, and natural disasters, yet in the midst of turmoil, Cross International continues to bring hope.Key Ministries in Haiti:Primary education for thousands of childrenTutoring and vocational training to prepare young people for employmentDaily nutritious meals—often the only meal a child will eat all-dayDespite the negative news headlines, God is moving in Haiti, and Cross International is at the forefront of that transformation.Caring for Orphans and Vulnerable Children in AfricaIn many African nations, AIDS, poverty, and natural disasters have left countless children orphaned and homeless. Through their partnerships, Cross International provides:Education and tutoring for at-risk childrenDaily meal support for children without food securityHome rebuilding for families living in unstable, mud-based housingBy offering stable housing, education, and nourishment, Cross International is breaking the cycle of poverty for these children and their families.One of the most inspiring aspects of Cross International's work is how it transforms entire communities.Take Malawi, for example—a country where child malnutrition and extreme poverty are common. Without the feeding program, many children would not go to school. The cycle of poverty would continue. In many cases, young girls would be married off at 11 or 12 years old because their families cannot afford to feed them. This program is breaking that cycle.Through Cross International's work in Tanganyika, Malawi, over 500 children receive food, education, and discipleship—offering them a new future filled with hope and purpose.Meeting Spiritual Needs Alongside Physical OnesCross International provides food, water, and education, but it also shares the life-changing truth of the Gospel with its beneficiaries.Children need to be rooted in God's Word from a young age because navigating life becomes much harder without it. When they learn early on, they grow up with the unshakable truth that God is their provider, guiding and sustaining them through every season of life.Cross International's faith-centered mission is a direct response to 1 John 3:17, which reminds us that true love for God is demonstrated in how we care for those in need.How You Can Partner with Cross InternationalCross International has launched the Thriving Kids Initiative, a program designed to help orphaned, vulnerable, and disabled children not only survive but thrive.By focusing on three key areas:Strengthening familiesBuilding faith communitiesProviding essential resources (food, water, shelter, education)Cross International creates a foundation for long-term stability and spiritual growth.For just $62 a month, you can provide:Nutritious mealsClean and safe drinking waterEducation and discipleshipVisit crossinternational.org/faith to become a monthly partner.As believers, we are called to use our financial resources for God's purposes. Partnering with Cross International is a tangible way to invest in lives, eternity, and the Kingdom of God.God entrusts us with wealth so we can join Him in His work, using our resources to further His Kingdom. As the Body of Christ, let's come together to transform lives and bring the hope of Jesus to those in greatest need.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have a question about rebalancing for 401(k) accounts.

Chris Lerch is a Co-Founder of Not Pizza, a beverage that's grabbing headlines and attention due to a genius marketing plan aimed at grabbing your attention. We all love pizza since it's become a part of our lives as a go-to comfort food, so Chris landed on that name when he thought about what he (and friends) like when hanging out: To have pizza and something that is not pizza (aka a beverage). With a name chosen, Chris and his co-founders at Not Pizza sought out the best tasting pre-canned cocktails to put on the shelves for all 21+ people to enjoy. Today, Chris and his team offer four distinct flavors, with several others that are ready to launch this coming Spring & Summer, and if you want to learn more about Not Pizza, Chris, and what's in store...be sure to tune in till the end!https://www.drinknotpizza.comDuring our next segment, we spoke with Bryan Szeliga who is the Owner of Fishtown Seafood. As far as what we put in our bodies is concerned, I'd rather eat something that came from the Earth or Water without any additional chemicals--something that Bryan noticed was not being offered from other companies that sold "fresh" seafood products. Throughout his interview, you'll learn a lot about what happens to the foods we buy from other stores. For this reason our host personally wants to buy fish specifically from Fishtown Seafood, after learning the difference of what other stores offer, and the healthier, higher quality foods that Fishtown Seafood offers. If you want to learn something new and make some better choices for what you consume, listen to Bryan's full interview and be sure to visit one of their locations in PA or NJ!https://www.fishtownseafood.comEntrepreneur, Speaker, Cookbook Author, Nutritionist, and this week's final guest on Food Farms And Chefs Radio Show is Meridith Coyle, who joined us to chat about ANEU Kitchens. There's a lot to unfold with all that Meridith handles, but we took a deeper look into the healthier side of comfort foods from ANEU Kitchens and healthy snack options with YEU snacks. In essence, our bodies are machines and we need to fuel them with the foods that will keep us going throughout our busy days. So, Meridith created a business that offers nutrient-dense grab-and-go options based on foods that we love. She also offers catering at ANEU, as well as offering informative classes via her Longevity Labs, so you can nourish your mind, body, and spirit to increase your own longevity in this life!
