My guest on Digging in is Peter Byck director, producer and writer of a 4 part documentary series called Roots so deep, you can see the devil down there.  He’s also currently producing an on-going series of short films called Carbon Cowboys. The film documents a $10 million research project comparing Adaptive Multi-Paddock  (AMP) grazing with conventional grazing; collaborating with 20 scientists and 10 farm families, focused on soil health & soil carbon storage, microbial/bug/bird biodiversity, water cycling and much more. Its all about the inventive farmers and maverick scientists building a path to solving climate change with hooves, heart and soil.

What is Digging In The Dirt with Kevin Gallagher?

“Digging in the Dirt” is a podcast and radio show featured on WPKN (wpkn.org) with climate change experts and activists, promoting organic and regenerative farming techniques, showing the way to grow healthier food in a way that respects the planet’s health. In addition to nationally known movers and shakers in this niche, Kevin loves to feature food authors, local farmers and gardeners pushing the envelope by encouraging us to take personal responsibility, as consumers and gardeners, toward the environment on our properties and urban lots. These guests give us methods, ideas and recipes for creating a better environment for people, our children, animals, insects and the plant life of our planet’s ecology — one backyard at a time.
