About this Event
Calling Colorado Farmers --
Join Mad Agriculture’s Director of Stewardship, Clark Harshbarger, as he takes us through a geologic history of the Left Hand Valley and Haystack Mountain. To highlight the day's events, we will then spend time identifying and describing inherent and dynamic soil properties, such as the soil’s horizons, aggregates, organic matter content and porosity in a soil pit!
Our observations will then be set in the context of agriculture and best uses for what enterprises the land can offer the farm and what the farmer can do to give back to the land. We hope to provide you with an emphasis on organic land management that you can take back to your farm.
RSVP to confirm spot. Come hungry, lunch will be provided. This is an outdoor event so prepare accordingly -- sun hat, water, closed toe shoes.
