DIG IT! Growing Healthy Soil



The long term success of any lawn or garden starts below the surface with healthy soil. Determining the type of soil by testing the texture, structure and ph should always be the first step in your landscape planning to ensure optimal growing conditions. Testing your soil will help to determine drainage concerns, acidity and nutrient availability providing you with a road map to growing healthy soil and plants.

Join me Saturday, March 31st at 11am at the Vashon True Value where I'll dig in to the different types of native soils examining the texture and structure as well as demonstrating how to test your soil's ph. I'll also discuss the benefits of organic amendments and how to address common soil concerns. 

Once again, True Value will be offering an exclusive demo discount for soil related products and amendments to ensure that you're lawn and garden get off to a great start this spring! Hope to see you there!

Here's a little of what you missed if you weren't able to stop by...






Here's some of the information that was handed out at the demo. 
I apologize in advance for my limited knowledge in converting files to appropriate, upload-able images. So, for now, it's the "chop-chop" photo-shop attempts. Time to bring out the bi-focals. ;)
