Don't Treat Your Soil Like Dirt!
Event description
A workshop on the key characteristics of soil, their importance, and how to maintain healthy garden soil.
The soil is the foundation of a healthy garden, whether it is a lawn, a vegetable garden or a simple flower garden.
Roger McLenaghen of Lincoln University will present the workshop at the Lincoln Envirotown Community Gardens. Roger is a senior tutor in the Soil Science Department. He runs the soil science laboratories for undergraduate classes, and lectures to Diploma students.
Bring along an ice-cream container of your vegetable garden soil if you would like to have it assessed.
Please note the venue for this workshop has changed to Lincoln Baptist Church, 109 Carnavernon Drive, Lincoln 7672. Unfortunately at Level 2 we are unable to host visitors to the community gardens, we are very lucky that we can still hold this workshop thanks to Lincoln Baptist Church.
Gold coin donation appreciated to support the Community Gardens.
