Joanna Campe’s Testimonial
Abadiania, Brazil
For the last four years I have been spending a few months every year at a healing center in Brazil during the winter and rent a house with a lovely garden. Last year a friend, Walter Schroth, who has an inn called Pousada Caminho Encantado very close by, became an avid remineralizer and has remineralized hundreds of trees.

For the last four years I have been spending a few months every year at a healing center in Brazil during the winter and rent a house with a lovely garden.

This trip he offered me some rock dust that he gets from the local quarry, a quite finely ground bluish basaltwhich looks ...
RTE partners with Trees for Clean Energy Network in Kenya
Trees for Clean Energy Network (TCEN) empowers youth and women to produce clean energy biofuel to light households and power small enterprises. Joanna Campe, Executive Director of RTE, and Zablon Wagalla met each other at the World International Renewable Energy Conference (WIREC 2008) vowing to partner at some time in the future growing jatropha on marginal soils with rock dust.

Farmer Campaigns for Nutrient Dense Food Production
Beginning in the 1950s, America’s farmers were told to get big, or get out. It wasn’t just a slogan, it was USDA policy, a mantra recited by several secretaries of agriculture.
