The soil community is no doubt more complicated than we can imagine.   Every day new discoveries are being made about this complex community of life that we so freely influence through our horticultural pursuits.

In this journal entry we dig into the soil community and how our crops and trees control the soil community to their own benefit.  We look at a practical technique called Aerated Activated Compost Tea that can be used to boost the foundation of the soil community and in doing so support the health of our trees. Related topics covered include Nitrogen forms, Worms and Vermicast.
