[Jan. 29] Cold air outbreaks over the Gulf of Mexico during winter result in widespread cloud streets in the

This means that healthy soil = healthy, safe & nutritious food.

It also means that if the soil is not healthy, its ability to store and filter water is reduced. #Soil and water are interconnected!
