The concept of Food as Medicine has been central to Biological Soil Management, drawing a clear connection between human health and turf health. Just as proper nutrition helps our bodies build natural immunity and resist disease, balanced fertility programs help turf recover from stress, develop stronger roots, and support healthy soil biology.

In this episode, we revisit one of Jerry’s lectures given over a decade ago in Australia, where he discusses the importance of nutrition for long-term health. While his focus here is on human health, he often highlights the parallels to plant health and the role of nutrition in building resilience.

At EarthWorks, this philosophy continues to guide our fertility approach, with natural products like Replenish fertilizers and CalVantage designed to build healthy soils and stronger turf.
