Healthy gardens start with healthy soil. In this five-session course on Tuesdays from Oct. 28 to Nov. 25, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. soil expert Monique Bosch will guide students through the essentials of soil science and its impact on plant growth — from drainage and pH to nutrient availability. You’ll learn how to assess your own soil, identify and improve problem areas, and amend soils for different gardening needs. Topics include fertilizers and amendments, composting techniques, moisture management, and the benefits and drawbacks of mulching. Before the first class, students are asked to obtain a soil test and bring the results to share and discuss.
