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

Online

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!

Soil Analysis, Carbon Sampling and Designing for Resilience / Análisis de Suelos, Muestreo de Carbono y Diseño para la Resiliencia

Tapley Court Garden 221 Bay Street, Springfield, MA, United States

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 NOFA/Mass Food Access to transform a portion of their community garden at Tapley Court Apartments into a refugia for at-risk native bees, butterflies and moths through the incorporation of biodiverse, perennial and productive native plant communities.

Building Soil for Agroforestry with IMOs (Indigenous Microorganisms)

197 Summit St. Plainfield MA 197 Summit St., Plainfield, United States

In this workshop, we’ll work backward through the IMO process, focusing on IMO4, a core practice of Korean Natural Farming (KNF). Rather than making IMOs from scratch, we’ll use fully prepared IMO4 to build soil fertility. You’ll see how to apply IMO4 in the field alongside a terminated cover crop, which will provide green biomass to feed soil microbes and jumpstart nutrient cycling.
