Healthy soils are rich in living organisms that process organic materials, efficiently yielding nutrients needed by plants.
Color Irondequoit Green and Master Gardener Laura Weller-Brophy will teach you all about healthy soils with a presentation on Healthy Soils, Healthy Gardens: The Amazing Partnership Between Plants and Living Soil on Saturday, March 8, at 1:00 PM.
In this talk, you’ll learn effective gardening practices to build and improve soil health through support of living soil microbes/organisms, as well as details about the relationship of certain fungi (mycorrhizae) and plant roots of over 85% of all plants on earth. Beyond being essential for plant life on earth, mycorrhizae support healthy soils in surprising ways.
Healthy Soils, Healthy Gardens will also give you the information you’ll need to build the living soil needed to yield healthy gardens, lawns, and trees this year.
