Local farmer Darcy Weber has made soil health the central focus of his operations. The owner of Floraview Farms and retired dairy farmer, Weber now grows cash crops including winter wheat, corn and soybeans.

He manages his fields primarily through no-till farming practices, meaning he has retired the traditional plough. This shift away from heavy tillage helps preserve a delicate, intricate underground ecosystem.
