We urgently need to rethink our relationship with soils, and go beyond considering soil as a mere layer of physical matter on the earth’s surface.
Our research team is gathering a diverse range of soil perspectives for two contexts: (a) food growing context of regenerative agriculture, biodynamics, permaculture, hua parakore, organics and the like; and, (b) the non-food context of forest or ngahere ecosystems.
We will explore the spirit of soil, concepts of wairua and mauri, tapu, noa, whakapapa to soil, consciousness and intelligence, cosmos, quantum physics, subtle energies and vibrations.
