Growing Green:
Compost – Building Your Soil
How healthy is your soil, and what can you do to improve it? One of the best ways to “build” the nutrition of your soil, and thereby increase the nutrient uptake in garden plants, is by utilizing what Mary Ann Ihm calls “Black Gold”- compost! We will discuss various techniques and methods to support the O-horizon by creating and maintaining an at-home compost.
Meet at Wellspring Farm in West Bend (address below).
Ages 18+
This program is free to attend, but donations are greatly appreciated!

The Soil Underfoot
with Mary Ann Ihm
Besides being a non-profit education center, Wellspring has been an organic farm for 35 seasons. Mary Ann Ihm, the founder of this 40-year-old organization, has had her fingers in the soil for over 45 years. Sometimes called “the Compost Queen”, she loves to help people learn how to build and enhance the soil. To her, soil is a living community with nutrients that nourish growing plants. Wellspring is a neighbor of Riveredge, just across the river to the north and has partnered with us in the Growing Green program this year.
Enjoy lunch or a snack while you learn on Zoom.
