The Soil Food Web School is the world's leading provider of soil biology and regenerative agriculture education, founded by pioneering microbiologist Dr. Elaine Ingham.

Over decades of time, Elaine trained thousands of students across more than 130 countries — from home gardeners and organic farmers to agronomists, land managers, and regenerative agriculture professionals. These professionals have gone on to impact millions of lives and millions of acres of land around the world.

Our programs are built on one transformative idea: the missing ingredient isn't fertilizer — it's the living biology that creates and unlocks soil nutrients naturally. In simple video lessons, step-by-step roadmaps, and approachable programs, we teach you how to restore it.
