On July 19, 2021, country music singers Jordan Davis and Luke Bryan released their song titled Buy Dirt. The song spent 25 consecutive weeks on the Billboard Top Country Hits with two of those weeks being at number one. The song won the Country Music Association Award for Song of the Year in 2022. In an interview, Davis was once quoted about the meaning of the song and he felt it reflected faith, family, friends, and ultimately finding your happiness.
How can dirt bring about one’s happiness? New studies indicate playing in the dirt and gardening can help your health.
