Healthy soil and sustainable growing

I think they simply don't care Paul. Most of the reporters I know are 
"professional" people and they have such harried lives that they can just 
barely make it to the grocery store let alone a farmers market (unless 
they're on assignment) and not knowing what a traditional yield is they are 
probably unaware of what's impressive. Besides, agriculture stories like 
this are soft stories - less prestige there.

So we need to tell the media when something impressive like this  comes up. 
We need to suggest to them that there might be some bigger correlation and 
then maybe the media might start to pay more attention.
