What I do

 Collect soil samples across the lower and upper peninsula of Michigan (under all kinds of conditions) analyzing them for various soil nutrient and carbon sequestration values. Field management histories together with these values help to “map out” carbon stores across the state of Michigan. These values will be added to other maps being generated globally.

 Communicate with a wide range of people from all walks of life embracing their approach to farming past, present and future, building relationships for future research.

 

Activities

 Currently renovating a 1916 Sears kit house in the Old Town area of Lansing.

 Michigan State University Extension Master Gardener working in various capacities in the community and on a digital platform, teaching and fostering gardening.

 Enjoy creating unique gift items for people of all ages.
