Hi, I’m Theresa, a soil biologist and a core member of Soil
First Tasmania. One of first things I always advise my growers
is to look at the health of their soil. If it’s had
compost added it’s better able to absorb and store water -
which is good protection against dry conditions,
and also less likely to erode during heavy rain.
It also makes a much better home for a diversity of
soil organisms. So be a good sort and put your food
and garden waste into your FOGO bin and help Tassie soils.
