Description

"When native plantings fail, the culprit is often the soil. While native plants are adapted to soils that developed naturally over millennia, most of us garden in spaces that were first plowed for agriculture and then bulldozed for housing development, radically changing soil conditions in the process. In this class, you'll learn how soils develop naturally, how they've been altered in the modern world, and how you can rebuild and restore the soils in your garden to allow native plants to thrive.

Join live to participate in our online learning community or watch after as your schedule allows. All registrants will receive a recording of the class with access to view the class for 30 days after the live session."
