January Announcement
There has been a lot of talk about flu and COVID innoculations but what about soil innoculation
for restoration (see what I did there?). Revitalizing your soil is just
as (if not more) important as getting plants in and on the ground. Depending
on your priorities and resources, this could be as simple as moving a
bit of soil from healthy systems to your degraded system. Commercially
available innoculants might be cheap but research suggests they dont work.
