Join us for a free, hands-on biochar field day where you’ll learn simple, low-tech ways to make biochar and explore how it supports healthy soils by improving fertility, water retention, and beneficial microbial life. 

We will be gathering dead creosote and managing this sometimes invasive native plant by turning it into biochar. 

Whether you’re a gardener, farmer, or just curious about regenerative practices, this field day offers practical skills you can use right away.
