Cornell Cooperative Extension, Partnerships for Parks, and NYC Parks GreenThumb bring you a two-part learning series on soil vitality and its impact on plants. Plant health is directly linked to the health of the soil it's growing in. If we take care of the soil, the soil will take care of our plants and crops.

Join us in this lunchtime webinar to learn the basics of soil science and soil health and different ways to assess, prepare, and amend the soil in order to improve its vitality. 

Join the Cornell Agriculture Extension team for an evening of nerding-out about beneficial insects and integrated pest management hosted by Pink Houses Farm. We'll spend some time guiding you through how to distinguish beneficial insects from harmful ones, ways to bring more beneficials into your growing space, and meet (or re-connect!) with fellow farmers and gardeners from the region.
