Discover how balancing biology and chemistry in your soil can be a game-changing tool for managing pests, preventing disease, and improving crop health. In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn the fundamentals of working with both the living (microbiome) and non-living (mineral) components of soil to create a thriving environment for your plants. You’ll be able to apply what you've learned to build healthier soils that support nutrient-dense, high-yield gardens.
