Soil is the lynchpin to life as we know it. It's where carbon is stored, where all life comes from and returns, and it's also the living foundation for all life on land and sea. If we want to restore our environment, economy, and health FAST, we have to work with soil and not just in one area, but in ALL areas. We have to make SOIL a permanent part of our culture.


REGENERATIVE SOIL is about demystifying soil science and soil's amazing array of solutions, spreading that knowledge and know-how out into the world, and in real-time, restoring contaminated soils and reducing our waste while building healthy living soil, growing amazing and nutrient-dense foods, and becoming healthier day by day, partnering with soil each step of the way.

Review Quotes




"Soil is so complex, diverse, mysterious and fundamental to plant, animal, human and planetary health. It can be daunting for everyone from those dabbling with food growing for the first time, to experienced gardeners and farmers finding things not working like they used to. To find and recommend a reference that integrates and clearly explains the diversity of soil fertility building practices with the latest scientific understandings is difficult to say the least.

Matt Powers' Regenerative Soil is the reference I will be using and recommending for those working from the backyard to the back paddock."

- Dr David Holmgren, Permaculture co-originator

and Author of RetroSuburbia; the downshifter's guide to a resilient future


"I found 'Regenerative Soil' to be a thorough and encyclopedic coverage of the science and philosophy of the field of regenerative agriculture. It covers many critical aspects of soil and plant sciences. I found the coverage of soil microbiology to be especially interesting. The coverage of the relationship between endophytic microbes and healthy plants is cutting edge.

I will be recommending this book to my students at Rutgers University as necessary reading to acquire a better understanding of regenerative agriculture. The field of regenerative agriculture is advancing rapidly and this book is an important installment in that advancement."

- Professor James White, Department of Plant Biology, Rutgers University


"Regenerative Soil is Matt Powers' best book yet. Matt's unique gifts as a communicator and teacher have shone through in this jam-packed piece and Regrarians highly recommends this book to anyone who eats, buys or grows"

- Darren Doherty, author of The Regrarians Handbook


"Matt has birthed a very comprehensive book on the most important aspect of gardening. This is the most thorough review of the topic I've read. You need to read this to fully understand how to make your food forest or garden thrive. The book offers a bounty of information for a bounty of food."

- Robert Kourik, author of Aerobic Soils, Understanding Roots and Roots Demystified


"Just when you think there can be nothing new under the sun, Matt Powers proves there's everything new under the ground-new approaches, fresh methodology and an utterly original take on subsurface dynamics. "Regenerative Soil" is a soil science revelation. Innovative, informative and effortlessly readable. A go-to guide for the generations, Matt's book is destined to become the most dog-eared dialectic on the subject of living soil."

- Michael Wittman, BlueskyBiochar.com
