In this episode, we focus on the practical techniques behind earth-working—how to shape land to retain water, prevent erosion, and support productive ecosystems. We explore core principles like planning for slope and flow, choosing the right types of earthworks for different landscapes, and using simple tools to measure level accurately. From planting strategies that protect new formations to using on-site materials like clay, stone, and gravel, this episode provides a full walkthrough of how...

In this episode, we explore the living world of soil — a dynamic, complex system that sustains all terrestrial life. Soil is far more than a medium for plants; it is a breathing matrix of minerals, organic matter, water, air, and countless organisms. We examine how soil structure, nutrient cycles, and biological communities work together to create resilience, and how modern practices often disrupt these vital processes. Along the way, we reflect on the causes of soil degradation, from erosion...
