The Dirt on Soil: Exploring the Foundation of Your Native Plant Garden

Virtual

Soil is living and not living and determines whether we thrive or perish on Earth. In this two-part series, Kristine will lay out a foundation for how soil works, its complexity and interaction with plants. She'll introduce the concept of Planetary Boundaries, ecological processes which keep the Earth stable and functioning. Starting with basic concepts about soil and how plants, microbes, and human beings interact with it, she'll move to practical applications for lightening our impacts and helping support pollinators, birds, and water/land conservation. Bring your soil/gardening questions!

Using the Jewish Studio Process - a unique methodology combining practices from the field of art therapy with a reimagined approach to Jewish learning and spirituality - we’ll nurture the seeds of our wild imagination, allowing them to gestate in the soil of our soul.
