Who is going to join the Soil Your Un**es Challenge?

😂🤣😂

Seriously, though, this is brilliant.

SOIL YOUR UN**ES CHALLENGE
The soil under our feet is much more than just dirt. In fact, it is an ecosystem full of life. One teaspoon of healthy soil contains more microbes than there are people on the planet. These microbes break down organic matter like cotton, while also helping soil retain nutrients and moisture. Healthy soil is vital to farmers as well as all plants, animals, and humans. Join us! Choose a location. Dig a hole and plant the all cotton un**es at least 4 inches deep. Place a marker so you can find the site again!

-Make some observations and write them down on a 3x5 card:
- What color is the soil?
- Can you see any organisms in the soil?
- How does the soil feel (sticky, grainy, hard, soft)?
- Wait 60 days. Carefully dig up your un**es. How have they changed?
Bring your un**es and your observation card to the Fluvanna County Fair for display on the Soil Your Un**es clothesline.
The drop off location at the County Fair will be updated closer to the fair dates.
The kickoff for this challenge is this Friday at the Fluvanna County Public Library between 10am and 11:30am.
