4 the Soil

The following was first published on the 4 the Soil website.

Keeping local waterways and the Chesapeake Bay clean requires everyone to be actively involved in protecting water quality, managing nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus, and building soil health.

CBF Watershed Restoration Specialist Matt Kowalski speaks with Jeff Ishee and Eric Bendfeldt from the podcast 4 the Soil: A Conversation about soil health and water quality.

Matt's work specifically focuses on agricultural best management practices and projects to restore wetland and riverside areas. Matt emphasizes that keeping water clean needs to happen farm by farm and lawn by lawn and that we all can do our part to improve water quality and save the Chesapeake Bay.
