The Clallam Conservation District is partnering with Clallam Co-Op Farm and Garden to offer a free workshop to learn how soil fertility affects the growth of your garden vegetables, fruit trees, and berries.

The workshop is from 10:30-11:30 a.m. Thursday, March 12, at Clallam Co-Op Farm and Garden, 216 E. Washington St.

Participants will learn about common nutrient deficiencies and how they affect plants, and how to test their soil to determine if they have any deficiencies. They will also learn how to use soil test results to make informed decisions on timing and application rates for fertilizer and other amendments.

There is no cost to attend the workshop, however pre-registration is required to ensure there are enough class materials. To register, visit the Conservation District’s website at clallamcd.org/workshops or call 360-775-3747 ext. 5.
