SUMMARY:Bioremediation for Urban Soils
DESCRIPTION:Join NOFA MASS online for the second of two evening events where we will learn from soil experts about bioremediation and how we are using plants and soil biology to ameliorate contaminated soil. In collaboration with the Mass Dept. of Ag. Resources we are tracking the results of our bioremediation test plots in several urban farming locations in Springfield Mass. During this live interactive event we will hear from our project bioremediation consultant Nance Klehm and Ibrahim Ali of Gardening The Community in Springfield along with youth participants to learn about the methods being used in their trial plots.\nIf bioremediation using microbiology and plant partners is effective\, such an approach can be beneficial by:\n• reducing costs by eliminating the need for expensive barriers and truckloads of loam\n• provide a deeper\, more functional soil\n• Improving soil in the long run for growing crops\, while breaking down toxic hydrocarbons and removing heavy metals to non-food-producing areas\nAgenda:\n• 7:00pm – Welcome and Introductions\n• 7:10pm – Bioremediation Overview\n• 7:30pm – Bioremediation in Process\n• 8:00pm – Questions and Discussion\n• 8:30pm – Wrap Up & Thank You \nclick HERE to For More Info

SUMMARY:Members-Only Webinar: Farming the Sound Sustainably
DESCRIPTION:*Become a member and gain exclusive access to this webinar.  Already a member? Check your email for a special invitation!  \nJoin us to dive into how regenerative ocean farming is restoring the health of the Sound and fighting climate change through sustainably raising seaweed and shellfish. Our special guest Kendall Barbery of Greenwave will explain how they are building a better future for farmers and the environment\, and why regenerative ocean farming can address a myriad environmental issues we face today including climate change\, destruction of marine ecosystems\, and plastic overconsumption. \nSave the Sound’s Director of Water Quality Peter Linderoth and Soundkeeper Bill Luceywill also highlight Save the Sound’s role in two exciting regional projects: an innovative nature-based solution to cleaner water using sugar kelp led by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and oyster reef restoration in the Bronx with City Island Oyster Reef Project.

SUMMARY:Advanced Workshop - Soil Microscopy
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we ‘zoom in’ on soil biology \nTopics Include: \n\nEffects of chemicals and tillage on soil life\nWays to bring soil ‘back to life’\nEvaluating soil structure\nStep-by-step instructions on using a microscope to study soil\, compost and compost tea\n\nA thriving soil biology is key to growing healthy\, nutrient dense food. We’ll take a look at how soil management practices affect microbes in the soil\, from tillage to cover crops\, to chemical fertilizers and pesticides. \n     \nMicroscopes can give us a new set of eyes to see what’s going on in our soil\, compost and compost tea. \nNo prior microscopy experience necessary.
