Building Soil, Building Community

You don’t have to be a Soil Scientist to achieve soil health and fertility. Learn how to use basic soil health techniques to grow healthier and stronger plants.
Sister Anna works for Northeast Organic Farming Association (NOFA) with community gardens and primarily with housing developments. When she first moved to Springfield, Massachusetts, the community had been trying to get a full-service supermarket there for a long time with no movement. She says, “I remember when I brought home my first bag of garden goodies to my mom … She was looking through the bags of cucumbers, sugar baby watermelons and tomatoes … and asked me which farmers market I got them from. My husband said that we grew it ourselves and she was so pleasantly shocked.”
