We are looking for farmers to build healthy soil on one million acres of Maryland farmland by 2030. You can join the challenge by enrolling your acres today!

We talk about the definitions of soil health and regenerative agriculture on our website. We hope you'll take a few extra moments to dig deeper here. 

The five principles of soil health, according to the National Resources Conservation Service, are:

1. Minimize soil disturbance
2. Keep soil covered as much as possible
3. Keep a living root in the soil as much of the year as possible
4. Maximize crop diversity
5. Integrate livestock where possible
