Yesterday, the #WorldSoilDay2022 was celebrated at the Department of Life Sciences of the University of Coimbra!

Maintaining stable, healthy and biodiverse soils helps protect pollinators, which are essential for obtaining food. From seeds, spices, oils, fruits and vegetables, there was a bit of everything on our stand!

RT @CCRI_UK: To coincide with #WorldSoilDay2022 a new app has been launched to allow citizens, farmers and students to report sightings of plastic in #soil

For #WorldSoilDay2022, I offer a photo from a field of mine last September.

We harvest silage for livestock in July and under-seed 15 different plant species which keep growing until it snows. The plants feed the soil organisms, sequester carbon, extract nitrogen from the air, and reduce erosion. Many neighbours would till the field and leave the soil exposed until spring.

If you live in the UK & you have primary school aged children check out my new Six inches of Soil blog highlighting Country Trusts brilliant ‘Plant Your Pants’ campaign which launched today on World Soil Day 🪱💚🪱💚 They can join in as individuals or can get schools involved. It’s a brilliant environmental project that connects kids with soil and nature

Happy #WorldSoilDay2022 y'all!🪱🪱👩‍🌾🌱

An entire universe of microorganisms live in our soils. And healthy soils are literally ground zero for a sustainable food supply.

I'm planning to check out the Soil Revolution Conference in Boulder tomorrow. See ya there!
