Minor Morgan, with North Valley Organics, is allowing the USDA-NRCS and Soil Health Division to use his organic vegetable farm as a training site for teaching the following components of a SHMS:
Minor Morgan has been assisting the NM NRCS for many years on various soil health outreach educational and technical efforts, including teaching about soil health practices, site-visits to his operation to explain what, how and why he uses a SHMS to achieve soil health building. Minor continues to be an important advocate for soil health and is using his site to teach and demonstrate how all the components of a SHMS fit into an operation that builds healthy and productive soils, that are economically viable, sustainable and that achieve many other environmental benefits (e.g., wildlife habitat, pollinators, water conservation, etc.).
