About the event
Used for thousands of years to enrich the soil, biochar is a stable solid, rich in carbon, and can endure in soil for thousands of years. Like most charcoal, biochar is made by burning woods or other biomass using a process called pyrolysis. The process creates a fine-grained, highly porous charcoal that helps soils retain nutrients and water.
Dave Phillips of Big Little Farm in Fort Worth will be here on Saturday, April 20 to explain biochar and how to use it in your organic gardening program.
