How can we restore fragile, sandy soils and stop erosion in its tracks? In this debut episode of Digging Deeper, Tim Thompson visits Colin Seis’s farm to talk with Phil Mulvey from Ryzo. Phil breaks down what “Sunday Soil” really means — and what it tells us about a property's health.
✔️ How to identify degraded sandy soils
✔️ What happens when soil is left bare
✔️ Why organic matter is the foundation of resilience If you're working with dryland pastures or eroded blocks, this is essential listening.
