ABOUT THIS TALK
Soil is more than “dirt.” It’s a living natural resource that performs essential ecosystem functions. In this talk, we’ll discuss how continuous living root systems, such as native plants, and reduced soil disturbance can improve soil’s ability to absorb and store water, reduce runoff, and sequester carbon, ultimately strengthening climate resilience and helping protect local lakes and streams.

ABOUT OUR SPEAKER
Michelle Probst (she/her) is a Land &amp; Water Scientist with the Dane County Land &amp; Water Resources Department. In her role, she quantifies and measures ecosystem service metrics from conservation and restoration practices, focusing on soil carbon sequestration and water quality. She has a deep passion for soil science and enjoys sharing that enthusiasm with others in hopes of building greater awareness and appreciation for the value of healthy soils.

EVENT DETAILS
This event will be held at The East Side Club (3735 Monona Dr, Madison, WI 53714). Doors open at 3:30 p.m. The program runs from 4 – 5 p.m. A Q/A session will follow the presentation as time allows. Complimentary event parking will be available at The East Side Club. Parking spots fill up quickly and may be limited depending on capacity.
