Carbon Farming at Home


Thank you to those who joined us on Tuesday, October 20 at 7:00 p.m. on Zoom for our presentation: Carbon Farming for Home Gardeners, with Trevor Probert of StopWaste.

Trevor explained how home gardeners can make use of carbon farming practices to build healthy soil and protect the health of the climate. He will share lessons learned from local urban farms, resources for residents to make sense of soil health and carbon farming at home, and tips for how residents can support carbon farming in their cities.

Trevor Probert is an outreach coordinator for composting and carbon farming at StopWaste. He manages StopWaste’s partnerships with urban farms and tests their soil to measure carbon sequestration and soil health. He is a garden educator, a home gardener, and a resident of Alameda.
