Go Nuts Bi-Monthly Community Call: Field & Fertility Plans

Go Nuts Bi-Monthly Community Call: Field & Fertility Plans

Join us for our Go Nuts springtime discussion where the group will be sharing plans and ideas for the upcoming growing season, as well as how to keep them alive and thriving. Fertility plans for agroforestry settings can be challenging due to a variety of factors, including: conditions for successful establishment, large pieces of land that may require different approaches in fertility, or how to keep costs down for organic-minded growers.

We love to hear about the different goals and arrangements of agroforestry sites in our region! Share your story, and listen in. What are you planting, or what have you planted? How’s your soil? Are you purchasing or making amendments? What about those foliar sprays?  If you are seeking feedback from others, looking to discuss your successes or improve your methods, or learn from your agroforestry peers, this call is for you!

pXRF Soil Lead Screening and Microscopy Workshop: From Microscopes to Metals // Taller de Microscopía y Detección de Plomo en el Suelo Mediante pXRF: De los Microscopios a los Metales

Join us for a FREE Soil Screening with interpretation for the results from American Farmland Trust’s Massachusetts Coordinated Soil Health Program team and USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service. Along with the test results, you’ll be given a brochure for information on the pXRF tool, guidance based on your result and there will be soil health and urban agriculture staff to discuss and collect resources along with potential next steps for your growing practice. Bring a dry soil sample. For collection information, use this guide.

Featured May 10 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Soil Analysis, Carbon Sampling and Designing for Resilience / Análisis de Suelos, Muestreo de Carbono y Diseño para la Resiliencia

In this hands-on workshop, participants will learn how to accurately sample soils for comprehensive chemical analysis, including soil organic carbon (SOC) and nutrient profiles. We will analyze in situ the biological, physical and chemical properties of soils, including compaction, infiltration rate, soil texture and structure, surface biology, soil aggregate stability, root behavior, soil temperature and bulk density. This integrated approach provides a thorough understanding of soil health by combining quantitative data with qualitative observations. Participants will also have an opportunity to learn about Landscape Interactions’ collaboration with Nuestras Raíces to transform a portion of their working landscape into a refugia for at-risk native bees, butterflies and moths through the incorporation of biodiverse, perennial and productive native plant communities.
