Urban Green Farms asked growers what soil or plant issue they most wanted to fix this spring. The answers revealed common problems with compacted clay, yellowing leaves, alkaline soil, drainage, weak roots and soil biology.

Urban Green Farms has launched two free online soil biology courses for kids, schools, growers and serious learners. Explore soil health, microbes, roots, carbon and nutrient cycling.

While various methods exist to control weeds, focusing on soil health can provide a sustainable and effective solution.
