As many local organizations come together with the City of Kingston to create a true community space in the heart of Midtown, a first step in getting our hands dirty is taking a soil sample to learn about the current soil profile. Join us for this fun, engaging and enlightening class with Cornell Cooperative Extension educator and farmer, Erik Schellenberg of Black Creek Farm and Nursery. He will shine a light on all things soil and help guide us in the next steps toward creating healthy ground for growing edible and medicinal plants.
Soil to Soul is a branch of the Holistic Health Community, a non-profit organization bringing earth connection practices and other healing experiences to the public - free of charge. Sacred reciprocity is the means of exchange: make a donation to the HHC, volunteer in the community or offer a generous hand to someone in need.
