Dear All
We attended the Elaine Ingham workshop on soil in January and have organised a composting workshop on Tuesday 29th September, near Banbury in Oxfordshire which we thought you might all like. 
Mark Verhofstede is coming over from Belgium to give a hands on workshop. He is an organic farmer who consults worldwide, advising on the best way to make compost, compost teas etc.  He is aware of Elaine's work and draws on it and other ideas - teaching in a really clear, inspiring way - both for gardeners and on farms.
We have started making long barrows of compost which we are already turning and he will work with these to demonstrate how to make humus rich compost in 10-12 weeks. We will look at compost teas and other innoculations and ways to test the soil eg chromatography.
Its always great to go to a lecture but we hope it will be even better to have a talk and a hands-on demonstration.
Please come if you can ...and share your knowledge too...or do pass this onto anyone you think might be interested.
Best wishes
Henrietta and Bridget
