We'll be giving away sample pellet packs to those interested in joining our Citizen Scientist project!

April 25th Arbor Day Celebration

When: April 25, 11am to 2pm 
Where: Finch Arboretum

What’s Happening: Wool Pellets and Citizen Scientist Project We'll be showcasing wool pellets, a sustainable alternative to synthetic fertilizers that retain water, release nutrients slowly and repel slugs. This is part of our work using what nature already provides to do the work of manufactured materials while supporting hardworking farmers.

We'll also be giving away sample pellet packs to those interested in joining our Citizen Scientist project!

How does it work? You'll use the pellets as directed in garden plants while growing the same plants without pellets alongside them. Once a month you'll check in by filling out a short form to help us collect data on the effectiveness of wool pellets in home gardens,fruit orchards, vineyards or small acre farms. Come by and talk with us to learn more.
