A once in a lifetime moment - Kiwi farmer Jerred Coogan travels across the world and takes to the stage at the home of Honky Tonk in Austin TX. Complete with his new cowboy hat and boots. It was a real thrill to witness! Cheers! Richard p.s. afterwards the lead singer revealed that he too was a rancher here in Texas. #silverfernfarms #newzealand🇳🇿 #austintx #brokenspoke #thestatelineband

The three hottest years ever recorded have all happened since 2020. 🌍🔥 But what if the story of climate change isn’t just in the sky but in the soil? In this clip, @wassonweather , @rtufton , @lasdamascattleranch , @climatewaterproject and Bella Lowes connect the dots between: 🌱 Soil health 🌧️ The water cycle 🔥 Rising global temperatures From 100°F differences between bare soil and covered land… to degraded soils that can no longer absorb and hold water… to the reality that how we farm can actually influence rainfall itself. This isn’t just about weather. It’s about how we manage the land beneath our feet. Because when soil can’t hold water, we get more floods, more droughts, and more extremes. And when it can? We start to restore balance. 🎧 Listen to Episode 14: Under the Weather: How the Water Cycle Starts with the Soil on Six Inches of Soil: The Podcast.

Another year, another Cap10k! The rain came and we kept going. Joyful day for Team Tufton and friends 🏃‍♀️ 🏃 🏃‍♂️ #statesmancap10k

Coming up on two years since we started the pod. I thought I’d remind you why we are here. Take a walk with me….. Thank you as ever to the wonderful @clai.remackenzie @anniemariec @meg.chatham & @sixinchesofsoil @dragonlightfilms Here’s to the next two!

What if a simple view could change everything? With the world focused on Artemis II, it reminded me that we were lucky enough to interview @nasa astronaut @mikefossum on the @sixinchesofsoil pod. 🌍 Imagine seeing Earth from space, that thin blue line, and realizing we're all connected every second. Drop a 🌱 if you believe perspective can ignite change. Seeing the planet from space makes it impossible to ignore how fragile and interconnected it all is. Colonel Fossum's story reminds us: we’re all crew on this spaceship Earth. When you understand how everything’s linked: fires in Australia, dust in Sahara, soil erosion, your actions take on new meaning. What’s one small change you can make today that helps our planet? (Spoiler: It starts with seeing the big picture) #PlanetEarth #SoilMatters #SpacePerspective #RegenerativeFarming #ClimateAction @aggiesbythesea
