Soil Health 3-Ways – September Session
Under the tutelage of CT NOFA Soil Health Program Manager, Monique Bosch, Soil Health 3-Ways participants will attend three virtual sessions (via Zoom) that cover the three main properties of soil – physical, chemical, and biological – in the lead-up to an in-person, practical application session. This 4-course series is intended for both commercial farmers and home gardeners to help them work with nature to produce healthy plants and nutrient-dense food.
