Preparing Healthy Soil – Free!
Thursday, April 17th
Farmington HS/ Rm. 211: 6:30-8:00 pm
Caring for the garden soil should be as important to home gardeners as it
is to farmers. Improving the soil structure is one of the most important aspects
of gardening, and adding organic matter is the most effective way to accomplish this.
So, what constitutes healthy soil? What and how does organic matter help to maintain
the pH balance of the soil and add nutrients? Discover how you can diagnose and
improve the health of your soil in time for this year's emerging gardens.
