Thursday 12th March, 7.30pm at the Robertsbridge Club, 10 Station Road, TN32 5DA
A free talk by Julia Cody, gardener, and Sylvie Corbett, scientist, exploring the sensitive communication mechanisms of plants and soil. Fascinating for all gardeners and lovers of the natural world.
‘Beneath our feet lies a vibrant, living world where plants, fungi, and microbes work together in an underground web of life. In this talk, we’ll explore the soil food web and how plants communicate, revealing how this hidden world supports everything we grow.
By using simple, nature-friendly practices like no-dig gardening, composting, and cover crops, we can grow healthier food, reduce chemicals, and support biodiversity. Understanding our soil not only helps the environment — it can make gardening easier too.’
