Dig in to the fascinating world of soil in a class tailored to the Carolina Piedmont. Nothing is more fundamental to successful and sustainable gardening than healthy soil. This class covers the scientific essentials every gardener needs to know to make informed decisions and sort through conflicting advice. We'll also demystify basic (and acidic) topics including pH, fertilizers, and soil ecology (from earthworms to fungi to microbes), and translate the North Carolina Department of Agriculture's soil test to practical terms gardeners can understand and use. Instructor Don Boekelheide, a graduate of Cal Poly's highly regarded agriculture program and former Peace Corps agriculture trainer, takes an open-minded but soil-science-first perspective. *registration required
