Gardening Practices for Soil Health

Single Session
Wednesday, May 20
6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Location
Beacon Food Forest P-Patch

This workshop will “look under the microscope” to explore soil health in the garden. We will discuss techniques for how we can examine the physical, biological and chemical qualities of soil to assess overall health.

The class will discuss the connection between a vibrant soil food web and healthy plants – and will include abundant time for Q&A and a walk through the garden. Participants will receive a small bag of worm castings to try out in the garden.

*Please note that this class is intended for P-Patch gardeners.
