Volunteers needed to spread chips for mycorrhizae inoculation in fire mitigation area: Ashram, Saturday, 9:30-12:30

 

As part of the Boulder Watershed Collective supported fire mitigation projects, a large amount of wood chips are being spread and inoculated with mycorrhizae.  The goal is to speed decomposition while also improving soil health in recently mitigated areas.  This has been shown to work on very small experimental plots but the initiative at the Ashram is a “first of its kind” experiment to determine whether good results can be achieved on large areas.

 

In order to prepare for the inoculation, the BWC and GHTM need a large group of volunteers to help spread chips.  We’ll meet at at 9:30 at the Ashram temple parking lot (follow signs to the temple).  Maya is coordinating so please let her know if you’re planning on coming or have any questions.  Her email is; maya@nullboulderwatershedcollective.org

 

This should be a fun event and a great chance to participate in the Gold Hill fire mitigation work!
