We depend on soil every day to provide us with food, but what is it really? Learn the basics about this extremely important but often under-appreciated resource. We will talk about what makes soil productive and how you cna manage your garden for optimal soil health. Terms like pH, organic matter, CEC, bulk density and base saturation will be covered. The class will also explain how to get a lab test of your soil and how to read the results. Ryan is an Assistant Garden Manager at Ecology Action in Willits, CA.
