Albury Biological Farming RoundTable

Albury Biological Farming RoundTable Event -

Under the Microscope with Phill Lee

Join Regenerate Earth founder and director Phill Lee for a day of discovery.  NutriSoil is bringing Phill’s expertise in soil microbial ecology, disease management, bio-fertility and soil regeneration to Albury. Phill will be opening the lid on life under the soil, bring along a small soil sample and be ready to unleash your science skills!

NutriSoil is a family owned and operated worm farm in North East Victoria. NutriSoil increases the plant’s natural growing mechanisms resulting in bigger root systems, healthier and more resilient crops, pastures and soil. NutriSoil is used as a seed inoculant, in furrow and as a foliar fertiliser and is suitable on all crops and pastures.
