WHAT DO THE PLANTS KNOW?


How do bamboo plants of the same species all over the world, at any given location, flower at the same time? Do eyeless beings like mushrooms and trees “see” colour? Have human beings or plants colonized this planet? And which has a higher level of genetic material…?


Plants have so much to teach us, and we are only at the start of this journey. Together with biological life teeming in the soil we can partner to achieve soil preservation, reduction in greenhouse gasses, increased crop fertility and rehabilitation of our natural landscapes and biomes. We are foremost guided by nature, which once observed, is the most patient of teachers.


OUR SOIL TO NURTURE


As soil stewards we guard the health of soils and our own. How we treat soil and grow our food, directly curtails or extends our ability to continue doing so. Convert the Dirt works to restore the infrastructure of life in our soils, creating beneficial and diverse underground networks to bring balance and fertility with decreasing dependence on chemical inputs.


MICROBE MANAGERS


We use a thermophilic, aerobic composting method to obtain these miraculous microbes. Each step of the process is guided by careful inspection and monitoring using the microscope. We follow the premise of slow cooking, ensuring specific sets of beneficial microbes are sustained at optimum populations while simultaneously dealing with weed seeds and pathogens. A network of accredited laboratory technicians provides this important monitoring tool and is available throughout South Africa, enabling prompt assistance with your soil or compost.
