Soils are complex, but they don’t have to be intimidating. Studying soils can be a great opportunity to get students outdoors, but there are plenty of ways to get up close and personal with soils in the classroom. Soils cover a variety of subjects like biology, chemistry, geology, geography, and history.
In this workshop you will learn the basics of soil: what makes up a healthy soil, how soils develop, how soils are different from each other. You will see how organisms like plants and humans are interconnected with and dependent on soils. You will learn how soils work as sponges, filters, and laboratories and what you can do to keep those attributes functioning. You will see how things above ground have a great impact on things underground. At the end of this experience, you won’t look at a landscape the same way.
