Have you ever heard about soil health?
Soil isn't *just* dirt. It is full of life, nutrients, and it plays a vital role in keeping water pure. Learn more about soil ecology and health with Soil Your Scarf in Mullingar Library.
Join ecologist Jess Leonard in a citizen science project that invites you to knit a tiny scarf (knitting is optional and all materials are provided) while talking about soil ecology and care. The tiny scarf then becomes a measuring device that can be buried within the topsoil to gauge soil life activity and health. See magnified mesofauna living in previously buried scarves and learn about how to protect and care for your own garden soil!
