Nice, I didn't know the story but that's great. "No Till" is a good practice.

Well that's a lovely read. Sounds like he was a very nice man.

First I learn the guy I so oftentimes laughed at was an actual modern days hero?
Second I learn he died in a freaking car accident?

WTF World!?! This is freakin’ too much!

RIP my joyful friend

He was outstanding in his field

It's funny but I don't think I ever saw any memes making fun of him per se, just using his appearance to sell whatever the meme was saying. Even before we collectively found out who he actually was. It's like people just read him as a good fella.

Regenerative agriculture is something I feel really strongly about, and that's why I use no-till methods for my cannabis and vegetables. I had no idea who this guy was, but wow! What an inspiration!
