Salem City Club Presents: "The Secret's In The Soil" With Linda Brewer, OSU Extension Service - 03/31/21

On Friday, April 9 at noon on Zoom, Salem City Club hosts  Linda Brewer,  faculty in the Department of Horticulture at Oregon State University, for the program:  The Secret’s in the Soil.

Linda Brewer is a certified soil scientist with the Department of Horticulture at Oregon State University.  She is the OSU Extension’s “Ask an Expert” resource for all things soil, soil fertility, and compost.  Brewer will bring us up to date on the buzz about good soils at home, on the farm, and for the environment.

Research has opened up the fantastic and magical work of nature below the surface of the soil. Learn about the science of the soil and the role it plays in sustaining life, water management, carbon sequestration, antibiotics, nutrient cycling, and infrastructure support. The program will provide insight into the importance of good soil structure from our home gardens, large-scale agriculture, and the broader environment.
