Soil Management!!! Red Fire Farm Montague Skill Share this Saturday 12th

Transition Montague Skill Share By Red Fire Farm! Saturday morning 10am - At the Montague Center GRANGE.
10am - noon: Skill Share
noon - 1pm: potluck lunch

We meet at the Grange: Ryan Voiland, Red Fire Farm owner, will give a talk and power point presentation for about an hour:

Ryan will do a basic primer for soil management: how soils form, soil theories, soil maps for counties, soil survey use, soil ph and chemistry, soil testing, fertilizing, soil nutrition, organic matter - how to build, cover crops.


Then we will car pool over to the new red fire farm in Montague, where Ryan will do a ph testing kit demo, look at soil texture and cover crops, farm tour and talk about plans for property,

then we'll go back to grange for our lunch pot luck! Community building!!! Lets get to know each other.

Hosted by the Grange - Donations to help with building repairs gratefully accepted.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
