World Soil Day

5 December

Soil – more than just dirt!

Explore different soil textures and discover their various properties. Through simple soil testing, children will learn to appreciate the true value soils have in helping plants grow.

When collecting soil in drier conditions, you may need to try a few different locations and wet or fork the soil before you collect it for testing. Try to avoid collecting soil in extremely wet conditions.
