Well I will start this topic off with this if folks are not dialled on the soil food web yet. This NRCS website has some information that is free and can be accessed through the links in the left. I believe the images in the gallery are open to use too with a note to where they came from. Learnings have come a long way since this too.

Here is another link to Soilfoodweb's video page which has good information also.
