In Memoriam
We are heartbroken to learn of SHA co-founder and first SHA President David Brandt's recent passing. David's passion for helping farmers learn about soil health and for just helping farmers in general was inspiring. We were so blessed to be able to call him a friend and mentor. He was a caring, compassionate man who would call out of the blue just to see how you are doing and catch up on life. I will miss those calls and miss the ability to pick up the phone and ask for advice. I'm comforted in knowing that he is reunited with his beloved Kendra and they are no longer burdened by earthly disease and pain. I wish I would have known that this was the last "ya' know" I would hear. Jay Brandt and family, David will live on in our hearts and in all the knowledge we will pass on from the lessons and stories he shared. - Dawn Breitkreutz, SHA President

Regenerate Your Miracle
In a recent poll, Soil Health Academy graduates indicated they’re putting what they’ve learned to use on their farms and ranches AND are confident those practices will lead to greater profitability.
Spending three days building new relationships with experts and other like-minded producers gave me the fiery confidence to construct my young operation on solid bedrock.

The Soil Health Academy has been instrumental in taking my soil/farming knowledge (and hence the direction of my business) to the next level.

The Academy was a real eye opener. You all did such a great job presenting, and the fact that you are living what you're teaching made all the difference. You've changed our way of thinking, and we've already started putting into practice what we learned.

“My Soil Health Academy experience is invaluable. To be able to apply the principles with
confidence is guaranteed to be a benefit to our net profitability as we work with nature to
better our family, farm and community.”
Luke Jones, Rushville, IL
“In my experience, limited though it may be, one of the most profound interactions for a student to encounter, is an instructor who truly believes in the message they are transmitting and the SHA has this in spades. This was an inspiring experience that I will return to as often as opportunity allows and I hope to increase my involvement in any way I can.”
