SUMMARY:Field School: Cover Crops & Soil Health
DESCRIPTION:Time to dig in! \n\n\n\n\nCover crops and healthy soils play a critical role in the success of any farm or garden\, cycling nutrients through the ecosystem\, increasing water infiltration\, and reducing erosion\, runoff\, and sedimentation. \nThis workshop will give an overview of fundamental soil health principles\, with a focus on how you can incorporate cover crops into your growing operation. You will learn practical ways to incorporate soil health practices into the management of your vegetable garden or urban farm. \nAbout the Field School \nThe Farm Alliance of Baltimore (FAB) is proud to launch Black Butterfly Urban Farmer Academy (BBUFA) Field School. Running from March to December\, this series of hands-on workshops is intended to serve as an accessible point of entry for anyone interested in learning the seasonal fundamentals of urban agriculture. No previous farming experience is required to participate! \nThe BBUFA Field School’s schedule is split up into three sessions: spring\, summer\, and fall. The majority of instruction will take place on site at FAB’s teaching farm in South Baltimore\, with occasional classroom sessions depending on content. \nLearn more about the history of the Black Butterfly Urban Farmer Academy program on our website. \nAbout the Facilitator \nNick Miller is the Healthy Soils Program Specialist at the Maryland Department of Agriculture (MDA)\, where he works with department staff and partner organizations to provide program assistance\, training\, and technical support to further soil health practice adoption throughout the state. As part of this role\, Nick administers the Healthy Soils Competitive Fund\, a farmer-led grant program which provides funding for innovative soil health practices\, projects\, and research in Maryland. Prior to his work with MDA\, Nick spent over a decade in farm management as well as agricultural production and education\, and was a founding partner of Good Dog Farm in Baltimore County. Nick holds a Master of Science in Agronomy with a concentration in Agroecology from the University of Florida. \nAbout the Farm \nFAB’s Black Butterfly Teaching Farm is our hub for food production\, farmer training\, and community connection in South Baltimore. With support from the City of Baltimore\, we signed a 15-year lease in 2021 and planted our first crops in Curtis Bay that fall. In 2025\, a generous grant allowed us to continue construction and expansion of the farm site\, which now includes a greenhouse\, a high tunnel\, and an apiary\, with more to come\, including more space for workshops and community gatherings\, new facilities to train the next generation of urban growers\, and more growing areas to support a wider variety of crops year-round. \nWe envision the Black Butterfly Teaching Farm as a place where we can grow food for Baltimore and cultivate a space where neighbors\, FAB members\, and aspiring growers can come together to exchange knowledge\, build skills\, and strengthen community. \nAdditional Information \nThis workshop will be held outdoors. Please wear close-toed shoes\, sun protection\, and weather-appropriate clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty. Be sure to bring a water bottle! Extra water\, masks\, hand sanitizer\, sunscreen\, and bug spray will be provided. \n\nParking: Street parking available on W Bay Ave.\nRestrooms: There is a port-a-potty on site.\nAccessibility: Paths at the farm are grass and woodchips. There is limited shade and seating on site\, please bring a chair if you need one!\nIllness: Please do not attend this event if you are sick or experiencing symptoms of illness including but not limited to fever\, coughing\, and/or vomiting.\nCancellation Policy: In the event that we need to cancel due to weather or unforeseen circumstances\, attendees will receive an email notification.\n\nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Plant Science Basics Series: Part 2 - Soil Health & Structure
DESCRIPTION:Deepen your gardening understanding by exploring plants from the inside out in this new\, in-depth 3-part series of classes for adults. \n\n\n\n\nIt’s not ‘dirt’… it’s soil!\nNHG proudly welcomes back teacher Iman Jones for a special hands-on series. \nNEW! Soil is more than just dirt. It’s a living\, breathing ecosystem essential to plant success and human life on earth. In this second session\, beginner gardeners will build a deeper understanding of what makes soil fertile\, how its components interact\, and how to recognize healthy soil using their senses. Participants will also explore the essential roles that microbes\, fungi\, and other organisms play in supporting plant health. With a focus on the soils typical of the North Texas growing region\, this class equips students to protect and improve their garden’s foundation naturally and intentionally. \nWhat You’ll Do: \n\nParticipants will receive note taking guides to help them follow along and document their learning.\nNext\, we’ll move from presentation and discussion to hands-on soil sampling and a macro-to-microscopic exploration of the world under our feet.\nWe’ll end our time together with interactive Q&A so that every participant leaves with the knowledge that they need to garden Victoriously.\n\n$10. What to bring: A writing utensil and curiosity! All other supplies\, including optional gloves\, are provided. \nYou’ll be a mad scientist for the day and leave understanding what your plants need\, and more importantly\, why.\nCOMING UP :\nPart 3: Watering: How\, When\, & Why – Saturday\, October 10th\nNOTE: This event is indoors in our comfortable Classroom\, and is best for adults. Before the event\, you are invited to drop by our Ralph & Rose Cafe next door for a cool coffee\, tea\, or treat before the event\, and shop with us afterward. \nIman Jones: As the leader of Victory Gardens\, she designs and leads workshops\, coaching sessions\, and experiences created to reconnect people to the living world. Iman built Victory Gardens Dallas in 2020 to help city dwellers find their footing in the natural world. A Master Gardener with a BS in Biology and 8+ years in STEM education\, Iman has guided 400+ gardens into existence across DFW\, and counting. \nVictory Gardens: Victory Gardens installs raised garden beds across DFW: delivered\, planted\, and ready to grow. Every bed comes with the option of a Grow Coach\, so your garden gets stronger over time instead of fading while you learn the ropes. We also offer garden design\, consulting\, and educational programs for those who want to go further.
