The Symphony of the Soil with Dr. Elaine Ingham

Live Event

Ended

Dr. Elaine shares why dirt is such a problem in the world today, and how humans can partner with microorganisms and plants to regenerate living soil. Instead of management practices that are dependent on increasingly expensive chemical inputs, we can utilize BioComplete™ Solutions and the power of ecological succession to restore biological functions in our landscapes.

No-Dig Intensive with Charles Dowding

Live Event

Ended

Charles will explain how his gardening practices have evolved since 1982, when he created beds for the 1.5 acres of his new organic market garden, including sharing with us his methods for growing food easily and quickly, based on maximizing soil health with no-dig methods. He also will include information about how he makes and uses compost and what his trials show us about no-dig and the benefits it brings, including year-round planting so that beds are mostly full and covered either with plants or decomposing mulches.

Rhizophagy Cycle and Endophytes in Plants with Dr. James White

Live Event

Ended

Dr. White discusses how plants absorb endophyes from soils in order to extract nutrients from them. In this process, called Rhizophagy (Rhizo = root, Phagy = eating), bacteria and fungi cycle between a free-living phase in the soil and a plant-dependent phase within cells of plant roots. He explains how plants internalize nitrogen-fixing bacteria into their tissues and spread the bacteria throughout the plant in order to get nitrogen from the microbes to different parts of the plant. Plants need microbes to grow properly and get the nutrients they need out of soil.

Green Manure & Cover Crops with Nathan Deboer

Live Event

Ended

Up until recently, forest fallowing was able to maintain soil fertility in Africa. With deforestation and population increase, there is no longer space nor time to maintain soil fertility through forest fallowing. The rains have washed away all the best soil, and farmers depend entirely on expensive fertilizers that only add to the problem. Droughts are happening almost every other year now. Nathan will share the real cause of these droughts and what smallholders in Africa do to drought-proof their fields. He also will share how farmers are turning their fields into a well-managed forest where they grow their maize without decreasing the plant population.
