Join us as we dive into soil regeneration and ecosystem restoration camps alongside John D. Liu & friends!
✅ Register to join us LIVE 👉 https://bit.ly/3NXdIQR
Dr. Elaine and the Soil ...Food Web School will welcome John D. Liu, Janel Luke, Bob Wilms, and Jonny Allen from Ecosystem Restoration Camps! Jonny will share the story behind the first urban Ecosystem Restoration Camp in Hollywood, California. Bob will share the story of a new camp being formed in Mendocino County, California, called the Land. Janel represents the Camp Fire Restoration Project in Paradise, California, and will share the story of devastation and regeneration through wildfire. The Ecosystem Restoration Camps (ERC) organization is a global, grassroots movement of people who work to create a more abundant earth. At camps around the globe, people repair broken ecosystems together and, in doing so, provide humanity with hope and a better future.
The BirdHouse is a community garden in Hollywood, serving as a hub of exchange for those attracted to caring for the land and people through arts and ecology. Through permaculture, systems thinking, medicinal plants, art, singing, science and storytelling, they aspire to a new story of interdependence, to restore shared wisdom, and to have fun doing it.
Bob Wilms is part of a community of city and suburban dwellers that came together to find a property that believed a return to the Land was an important component to the human experience. After 5 years on the property they learned that when you re-wild the land, cultivate your own soil, grow and prepare your own food, you are building your own value and ownership. Their aim is to aid in restoring the dignity of the marginalized, the cast out, the prison residents and the wild ones. Once reclaimed, people naturally find the desire to contribute their unique gifts to society.
Janel Luke is Co-Chair of the Camp Fire Restoration Project (CFRP), the non-profit behind Eco-Camp Paradise, whose mission is to promote ecological stewardship through education, community action, and resource sharing. Their current ongoing projects include a community composting program (Paradise Community Compost) and a partnership with Chico TEK. Ms. Luke's professional background involves microbiology, with a focus on soil restoration and composting.

Join our panelists as we talk about how thriving fungi and soil ecosystems are a hope from the biosphere!
✅ EXTENDED SALE! Sign up today and get 45% off our Soil ...Regeneration Classes 👉 https://promo.soilfoodweb.com/
Many of us face concerns or anxieties over news of fires, floods, and other looming environmental problems in the world. In this webinar, we will discuss how thriving soil ecosystems can help alleviate future disruptions and heal the damage done to our precious biosphere.
Dr. Adam Cobb will explore our ‘tiny allies’ in the soil, using the example of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to highlight how soil food webs create the conditions for life to flourish. Didi Pershouse will discuss how landscapes function as wholes, and how the soil sponge is the vital infrastructure that regulates local climate and makes life on land possible. She will present how soil biology, plants, and other forms of life are the essential workforce of our biosphere. For example, fungi entangle soil particles to improve aggregation, enhancing healthy soil’s sponge-like ability to soak up water and provide resilience to flooding and drought..
The biosphere contains wonderous organisms, such as mycorrhizal fungi in soil. If we learn to work with these tiny allies, rather than against them, there is hope for a future where life is protected, ecosystem health is restored, and human needs are provided for, without degradation of our planet.

Kyle will begin his talk with the facts about fungi, the characteristics they share with other kingdoms, and the traits that make them unique. Then he will explore the ecological roles fungi fill in soil ecosystems, in composting systems, and in direct interactions with plants. Kylealso will cover different methods for working with and measuring fungi, and will share his thoughts on the future of farming with fungi. This webinar will spread the spores of knowledge about these cryptic and often underappreciated organisms, amplifying practical ways regenerative agriculture practitioners can collaborate with the Fungal Kingdom.
About our speakers:
Kyle Kaszynski began his academic career by studying plant biology and chemistry at Southern Illinois University, where he was able to participate in a number of different research opportunities. From there he traveled north to Wisconsin to study mycology with the famed professor Dr. Tom Volk. Falling in love with the biodiversity of the PNW, Kyle moved to Oregon after graduation to pursue a career in the Cannabis industry. He has since co-founded a consulting company, Mycophyte Solutions, and is co-authoring ‘The Mycology of Cannabis’ which is expected to be published in mid-2023. Since moving to Oregon, Kyle has worked for a number of fertilizer companies and has been certified by the American Society of Agronomy as a Certified Crop Advisor and by the Soil Food Web School as a Certified Lab Tech. Currently, he actively consults with Cannabis farmers, helping them grow their crop by incorporating sustainable practices. Kyle regularly also works with mushroom farmers across the country and with landowners in the PNW to utilize the benefits of fungi to improve the ecosystem.

The Soil Food Web Approach can dramatically accelerate soil regeneration projects by focussing on the soil biome. This can boost the productivity of farms, provide super-nutritious foods, protect and purify waterways, and reduce the effects of Climate Change. No background in farming or biology is required for our Foundation Courses. Classes are online & self-paced, and students are supported by highly-trained Soil Food Web School mentors.
Over the last four decades, Dr. Elaine Ingham has advanced our knowledge of the Soil Food Web. An internationally-recognized leader in soil microbiology, Dr. Ingham has collaborated with other scientists and with farmers around the world to further our understanding of how soil organisms work together and with plants. Dr. Ingham is an author of the USDA's Soil Biology Primer and a founder of the Soil Food Web School.

This webinar, Fungal Diversity in Tropical Ecosystems, will highlight Kennan Mighell’s research on mushroom diversity in some of our planet’s remote rainforests.
✅ Learn more about the Soil Food Web 👉 ...https://www.sfw.one/newsletter-youtube
Kennan will take us on a journey deep into the heart of the South American and the African wilderness, to a landscape bursting with diverse and colorful mushrooms, including many undescribed or long-forgotten species.
Working closely with local indigenous people, Kennan and a team of researchers and guides are documenting hundreds of fungal types, many known only in these remote and spectacularly unique ecosystems. Kennan will introduce us to a few of the newest and most curious Amanita species to be documented by modern science. He will also discuss the dynamics of extended wilderness research expeditions and share stories and insights from his experiences with Earth's most ancient intact ecosystems and stunning cultures.
About our speakers:
Kennan Mighell is a mushroom researcher, educator, cultivator, forager, and artist. Guided by a desire to expand our knowledge of the diversity of the fungal world and of wilderness exploration, he considers himself a feral mycologist with a mission to deepen the symbiotic relationships between humans and their fungal relatives. After graduating from Humboldt State University with a Master's degree in biology, he has worked as a cultivation/mycoremediation consultant, started a business wildcrafting products from forest mushrooms, and taught mycology classes in his home city of Portland, Oregon. His latest project with the non-profit Madagascar Mobile Library aims to empower the Malagasy people by means of mushroom cultivation, while continuing his tropical taxonomic explorations on behalf of conservation.

Laura Campos completed her Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Biology at the University of Costa Rica. She’s collaborated on research projects investigating chemical ecology of social insects as well as the maintenance and identification of entomological collections, especially tropical insects and spiders. Laura also conducted her own research on topics such as biological pest control. Laura is fascinated by entomology and the interaction of insects with plants, fungi, and other organisms in the soil. She is cognizant that there is still much to learn about these fascinating and diverse groups, their roles in ecosystems, and how human activities impact their populations. Currently, Laura is developing content for the Soil Food Web School and training new consultants focused on a more agroecological perspective on farming.
