Please join the Composting Association of Vermont for our next "Compost Tea Talk" lunch-and-learn webinar! This session, "Compost microscopy 101: matching biology to soil & crop needs,"
explores the fascinating world of microscopy, helping you understand how the biological communities within compost influence soil health and cropping success.

Led by John Culpepper, this webinar will include looking at microscope images from compost and healthy soil, breaking down what different microbial populations indicate and how they can be used to guide compost application strategies. Learn how bacterial and fungal dominance impacts plant health, and discover how to fine-tune your compost use for different cropping systems and long-term soil sustainability.

Key Takeaways:

• How to interpret microbial diversity in compost and soil samples
• Understanding bacterial vs. fungal-dominant compost and its best uses
• Strategies for aligning compost application with your soil health goals

• How to reduce costs by choosing the right kind of compost for your fields, cropping systems, lawns, ect.

  Bring your lunch and your curiosity for this engaging and insightful discussion!
