Want nutrient rich food? Sometimes it’s not just the plants that need attention. 

Sometimes you need to… Love that soil. Without healthy soil your gardening results will be disappointing, so come to How I Learned To Stop Worrying…and love my soil! with Christina Nikolic, of Organic Gardener’s Pantry, 11:30 am, Feb 15 at Seedy Saturday.

“Whether experienced or just getting started, gardeners are likely to encounter some perplexing (and common) setbacks:

• Certain fruit and vegetable plants that don’t produce as expected
• Ornamental plants that fail to thrive
• And plant predators that chew plants to the ground

All of these issues point to plants that aren’t at optimum health. So, what could be wrong? Plants may be lacking in proper nutrition, missing beneficial microorganism companions, or short of energy to reach their full nutrient-dense potential.”  Phil Nauta, Organic Gardener’s Pantry Founder, Building Soils Naturally
