Program Prerequisites

Before enrolling in the Living Soil Practitioner Program, participants should have a strong foundation in soil biology and be ready to develop practical laboratory skills in soil microscopy and biological analysis. This program focuses on building the expertise required to accurately assess soil health and support regenerative land management.

  • Complete the Soil Food Web Foundation Courses (FC1–FC4)

  • Achieve an average score of at least 90% in the Foundation Courses

  • Have access to a microscope and compatible camera setup for observing soil microorganisms

Pathway

The Soil Food Web Complete Practicum brings together all four Advanced Courses into one cohesive learning journey.

Designed for farmers, growers, and consultants who are serious about transforming how they work with living soil.

This isn't a collection of videos. It's a mentored practicum: hands-on, science-grounded, and built around your real land, your real challenges, and your real goals.

By the time you're done, you won't just understand the Soil Food Web, you'll know how to read it, build it, feed it, and work with it through an entire growing season.

The mission of the Soil Food Web Foundation is to help individuals and organizations regenerate soil in their communities. Our Advanced Programs have been redesigned to help us reach that goal.

Social proof: testimonials

“Dr. Elaine’s™ Soil Food Web Approach is an effective and viable means of rapidly regenerating agricultural soils, enabling farmers to operate without the use of chemical inputs, thus protecting the world’s waterways, insect and animal populations. Restoring the Soil Food Web to agricultural soils restores productivity and profitability to agriculture and results in substantial levels of carbon sequestration, and has the potential, if implemented on a global scale, to return atmospheric carbon to the safe level as identified by the IPCC.”

Dr. David Johnson

“Our farm was in serious trouble, but after implementing the SFW approach we increased our yield by 150% in a single season, and we were very successful to repeat this approach on different soils at different farms achieving excellent results. We also cut many input costs such as fertilizers by at least 60%. We continue to monitor and move our soils to a much better place, production continues to increase while many other benefits become apparent such as, reduced disease, improved crop resistance to cold and/or heat, improved drainage, reduced soil salts, as well as improved water holding capacity and at the same time achieving improved taste as well as better shelf life.”

“One of my clients out in the Midwest does soy and corn. In 3 years they completely eliminated Roundup… switched over to non GMO, and just that alone had saved them over $1M… What business can you go into, make money, and yet you’re giving back to society? You’re giving back to the environment and you’re giving back to your children.”
