The Dustbowl days sound like an it would be an interesting article to write about land mismanagement. I see another dustbowl coming up with the use of herbicide and pesticides sterilizing our soil to the point nothing will grow because the micro biome has been killed. Just like our gut plants need nutrients broken down by the flora and fauna found in our soil, the roots can then absorb the refined nutrients. They all have a interconnected relationship and this relationship is connected to all life on earth.
Boy this town is rich....It's a good place to practice letting go of my envy....hahaha
