Are you tired of getting your soil test back and not understanding it? Feel at a bit of a loss about what to do, even once you DO understand it? Or perhaps you know it’s something you should do but you’re not sure where to begin? This workshop is for you! We’ve teamed up with an expert soil scientist to help you get to the bottom of what your soil test means and what to look out for.  We will also provide a few recommendations based on your specific soil test so you will leave with not only a clearer picture of your soil’s health, but also a mini action plan to help get you back on track.

Our workshop covers:

  • Unpacking the value of a soil test – and the NZ landscape on this

  • An overview of plant mineral requirements and why we need to care

  • How to get an accurate soil test sample - we will take a sample at CROP

  • Some other interesting soil gadgets that spice things up

  • Reading a soil test  - what does it all mean?

  • Some soil test red flags – what should jump out at you

  • Organic vs ‘Inorganic’ amendments – we debunk some myths here

  • Some initial recommendations/ amendments based on your individual soil test

You will get:

  • Consultancy on reading soil tests from an expert soil scientist

  • Resource materials

  • Your own mini action plan to take home to help supercharge your growing

  • Your very own Soil Sampler so you can take accurate soil samples in the future

  • Morning tea and a delicious lunch
