'Creator of Natural Farming Co. and organic farming evangelist Chris Trump is on the line to talk about his experience switching from “traditional” farming to natural farming on his decades old family macadamia nut farm. Chris shares some interesting findings with the audience, such as the analytical testing he had done that showed increased nutrient content in his crops plant tissue after switching to an organic, microbe focused farming style. He explains how this is all due to the soil food web, and that by tending to the microbial life in the soil, the old chemical fertilizers locked away in the soil can actually be mined and made bio available to the hungry plants. The discussion then turns to pesticide use, and Chris sheds some light on cutting edge integrated pest management strategies that serve as a wonderful front line of pest control before reaching the need for chemical pesticides.   —Ready to get started drinking delicious, organic, consciously sourced, healthy coffee?
