Soil to Soil

Fibershed

Soil to Soil serves to connect the dots in the lifecycle of clothing and material culture, offering a look at how, and why, Fibershed communities are working to cultivate fiber and dye systems that build soil and protect the health of our biosphere. Can fashion and textiles, an industry known as one of the heaviest polluters on the planet, change course and even become a stakeholder in a system that benefits people and planet? From sheep to sweater, field to finished good, we invite you to join us in connecting to the people and places providing a pathway to regional, regenerative fiber systems. Through individual interviews, the podcast will dive into questions such as who grew your clothes? How can fiber production build soil carbon? How can we measure the impacts of carbon farming? And more.
