Grow Your Own Fertilizer
Using cover crops in our gardens is a great way to imitate Nature’s time-tested method for protecting and improving soil and soil life. By growing plants intentionally, with the goal of returning them back to the soil, we can improve garden health in many ways. including increasing soil organic matter, improving soil structure, enhancing soil biological life, as well as providing a safe and environmentally-sustainable source of nutrients for your plants. Many cover crops also support a wide variety of beneficial insects, including pollinators and helpful predatory insects – yet another reason to keep cover crops growing in your garden! Join us in this virtual workshop exploring cover crops and soil health with Julie Hale, Community Garden Coordinator with Greensboro Parks & Recreation. Julie will lead a virtual tour of Keeley Park Community Garden and the many ways they incorporate cover crops, discuss the benefits of growing your own fertilizer, and how to design a planting and management plan for your community or school garden.

Alongside fresh produce, community and school gardens grow deep relationships and community engagement, provide space for physical and mental wellness, and support life-long learning and academic success.
