Voices of the Soil creates opportunities for people and their communities to hear the voices of soil through:

· Community gardens

· School programs and curricula

· Brewed compost tea parties

· Story telling and sharing of Indigenous and traditional knowledge

· Scientific Research

· Local learning centres, education and outreach programs

· Partnership with government, local industry and communities

 

Since 2000, Voices of the Soil helped schools and communities establish:

· Gardens & Garden Programs:  Backyard, schoolyard and community gardens to grow food and  care for soil.  New in 2005 City Farm.

· Plant Watch Gardens: Plant and tag plant watch indicators, and be part of the annual bloomtime count.

· Natural spaces: Landscape yards and fields to create a beneficial habitat for natural flora and fauna.

· Youth environmental programs: Engaging youth in the natural environment by encouraging learning, demonstration and peer leadership. Hands on, age relevant programming at EcoClub and EcoCamp.

· EcoCamp Birthday Parties:  Fun, entertaining activities for 8-12 years.  A great way to celebrate a birthday

· SoilMate Events: Fundraising opportunities, good for the soil and your organization
