We’ve had dozens of requests for Dr. Zach Bush to come onto the show over the years, and I’m pumped to finally have an opportunity to sit down with him — and the resulting conversation is nothing short of mind-blowing. This is straight up one of the best conversations I’ve had in my life, not to mention on the podcast. Dr. Zach Bush is an internationally recognized educator and thought leader on the microbiome as it relates to health, disease, and food systems. He founded *Seraphic Group and the nonprofit Farmer’s Footprint to develop root-cause solutions for human and ecological health. He sees that there is a dramatic need for a radical departure from chemical farming and pharmacy, and his ongoing efforts are providing a path for consumers, farmers, and mega-industries to work together for a healthy future for people and the planet. So, really, there’s never been a better time to sit down with Dr. Bush — because our society and planet clearly need some help right now. To support the work of Dr. Zach Bush, the most powerful step you can take right now is connecting with and supporting his non-profit organization, Farmer’s Footprint. They’ve also recently launched a crowdfunding tool where you can support the acceleration of soil health through the adoption of regenerative agriculture practices by harnessing the power of giving within your own community.
