Soil and human health
Some call it dirt. But in fact, our body is made of the same material, that is found below the surface of the earth. And there is more to it. Even though it became hard to work the soil after the fall of man, this material is still meant to keep us healthy. Starting with the green revolution, the focus was mainly on achieving a maximum in yields. The availability of synthetic fertilisers and pesticides made us forget about the importance of keeping the soil healthy. Within the last few years scientists began to understand, that it is not only our modern lifestyle, that makes us sick. It all starts with the soil. In this workshop we want to learn some principles that can help us to revive the „living room“ in which the roots of our plants are founded.
