Soil Sampling training: Learn to Read Your Soil
What’s Beneath Your Feet? Discover Your Soil!
Ever wondered what's happening beneath the surface of your garden, community green space, or land?
This hands-on training will help you uncover the secrets of healthy soil. You'll learn how to identify your soil type, understand its strengths and challenges, and explore simple ways to improve it for people, plants, and wildlife.
Together we'll carry out practical soil health tests, including:
- How quickly water soaks into the ground (infiltration)
- Earthworm counts
- Soil insect and invertebrate surveys
- Rooting depth assessments
By the end of the session, you'll have a better understanding of your soil and how to create healthier, more nature-friendly green spaces.
Perfect for landowners, community groups, gardeners, and anyone interested in supporting wildlife and improving the places they care for.
