Soil Health Workshop Series: Mulching

Soil is the lifeblood of the farm. Healthy soils support plant growth, cycle nutrients, retain moisture, and support a complex web of microorganisms that help plants thrive. Each session in this three part series this spring will focus on different key elements of healthy soils on an urban farm. Participants will gain key insights on how to build their soils for agricultural success.

This workshop will highlight mulching, a practice that conserves water and suppresses weeds. Attendees will learn the value of using various mulches in your farm or garden and see these practices in use at Bay Branch Farm.

**This event is outdoors on a working farm where you will be surrounded by nature. Ground and terrain may be uneven on the farm. We recommend comfortable shoes, sunscreen and a hat.**

This workshop will take place rain or shine. In cases of extreme weather, we will contact you 24-36 hours prior to the event if we need to cancel.
