Events › Master Gardeners: Healthy Soil

Do you wonder what you need to do to get your soil ready for planting? Come join UC Master Gardener and UC Master Composter, Jasmine Martinez, who will discuss working with your soil to transform it into the soil for planting fruit trees, vegetables, flowers, and shrubs. You will learn about digging techniques, determining which amendments and fertilizers are needed, lab soil tests, and using cover crops and mulches. We will also discuss common soil-dwelling pests and diseases.
