I want to pay tribute to Elaine Ingham, whose pioneering work in soil microbiology changed our understanding of the relationship between plants, soil and the environment. Elaine developed the soil food web concept in her scientific research that inspired a movement of farmers, back yard gardeners, science and regenerative agriculture. Her research helped build a popular demand for sustainable, regenerative agricultural practices that continues to grow today. Thank you Elaine.
