Rebuilding Our Soil
June 5, 2025
By Catherine Austin Fitts
What with glyphosate, PFAS chemicals, wind turbine debris, and a myriad of other soil contaminants, it is easy to become depressed about the state of our soils. In this interview, Pat Miletich of Soil Saviors—a private ministerial association—explains that even under these seemingly dire conditions, it is possible to bring soil back to life in a dramatic and lasting fashion.
Miletich works in partnership with Soil Saviors pioneer Dr. Wil Spencer, who has spent years developing a unique and powerful system to strengthen the vitality of living systems. Together, Spencer and Miletich want to launch a Soil Saviors movement, working with “intelligent, open-minded gardeners, farmers and stewards of the land” to spread the good news of a “root cause” soil health paradigm that uses carefully sourced probiotic microorganisms to break down toxic chemicals, improve nutrient density, increase yields and BRIX ratings, and create an environment inhospitable to pests and weeds.
Spencer and Miletich both grew up in conventional agricultural communities where their exposure to agrichemicals led to significant childhood respiratory challenges. As young adults, they were able to heal those conditions by making the connection between vitality in soils, vitality in food, and vitality in human health. Miletich was so successful in his healing endeavors that he went on to become a North American kickboxing champion, UFC welterweight champion, and black belt in four martial arts, as well as coaching professional athletes and training law enforcement and the military.
After you listen to this interview, visit the Soil Saviors website, where a wealth of videos by Spencer and Miletich—as well as testimonials from the likes of Jim Gale (a previous Solution Series guest on the Solari Report) and Grow Network founder Marjory Wildcraft—are guaranteed to inspire you to want to join the Soil Saviors network!
You can read more about the history and vision behind their approach in an informative article in the Spring 2025 issue of Wise Traditions, the journal of the Weston A. Price Foundation.

Wonderful interview! These ideas are right up my alley! I am a big fan of his Die Mean Inc and his former career as a fighter.
Health of the soil (and ourselves) is our responsibility. I love the simplicity of the detox he uses. All of the ingredients make perfect sense.
I have sent this interview to everyone I know.
Thank you Catherine & Pat!

I checked out the website.
Why do I have to sign a contract with religious overtones before being “initiated” into the association to know details about the product? What is ecclesiastical law? What is spiritual doctrine? Is this some secret society? It’s creepy.
Glad to see your comment. I had the same feeling and wondered what I was missing! I listened to all I could without signing the spiritual agreement that includes agreeing to agree to mediation! I have a farm where I am interested in moving towards some regenerative type of farming so thought I’d try it out for my small garden. I couldn’t even get to “how to use” the product, much less purchase it without signing the strange agreement!
I shared your comment with Pat on an anonymous basis. Here is his response below. Sounds like the language is designed to ensure they qualify for private membership. Let me know if you want me to send an introduction:
That’s interesting. Id love to talk to them about it.
We have educational videos on how to mix and use the product.
We have a PMA agreement to sign so that our business relationship stays in the private for obvious reasons
Excellent interview and insights – thank you
it reminded me of Dr Zach Bush MD
Dr Zach Bush MD has been speaking out for years in America about the soil
He started Farmers Footprint some time ago 2010
maybe Rich Roll podcasts with him
My apologies I am urban however
I seem to recall Dr ZB explained how difficult it was for farmers to break free from the community, their church and life, as it was awkward as all farmers in the community were taken care of by the fertiliser company and
I seem to recall Dr Zach Bush stepped in and started the organisation that supported a farmer who he convinced that it would be possible to change
I seem to recall that say the farmer’s father had a yield of 40 bushels the fertiliser company rep promised 50 bushels, and then once into the system the yields dropped and alas, the children of the farmer got physical side effects
This maybe why Dr ZB got involved
Anyway I am pleased to see there is a website fyi – lots of data, videos, and Dr Zach Bush MD is there
https://farmersfootprint.us/
I found NZ farmers footprint video on YT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lz3BOajydxQ
as well so maybe it has spread, just as CWF hopes the soil data will
Thank you.
Yes, Dr. Bush has been communicating the importance of soil for years.

this is a written detailed interview about the man in video below Mark Shephard – just found this fyi while looking for the video below fyi. thank you.
Homestead Paradise: got barren land, boosted it at a profit

this video was impressive
Excellent interview. We all should be involved, one household at a time. This is a vital issue that everyone should be passionate about.
Thank you for the inspiration for not only healing our soil, but also our bodies and minds concurrently.
We need any farm or land with a PFAS problem to know that there are solutions worth trying!
Interesting interview. I came in contact with this methodology a decade ago under the name “biological” farming. It’s very different than conventional or organic. Soil sampling is a crucial component, it’s a focus on total soil health. The Biological Farmer, by Gary Zimmer, is a good read for the interested student. If anyone has more information regarding the 1992 Rio summit in a digestible form I would appreciate it. I understand several attendees wrote books identifying their concerns with the UN program.
Patrick Wood has described one of those books – Two environmentalist appalled at what they herd.
I’m so excited about the potential of this product! If it does what they say, this is HUGE on so many levels.
I have what I call a micro-farm in central Texas – growing veggies and recently added medicinal herbs. We only use natural methods (i.e. fingers to pick off the bugs), but we get biblical level grasshopper infestations every year in the summer. We were selling at a farmers market and gave that up due, mainly due to the limits the grasshoppers put on us. We refuse to put any chemicals on our land and the “organic” products don’t make a dent. I’ll be placing my order with Soil Saviors soon. Thanks for letting us know about this.
Let me know how it works!
