MACD Soil Health Resources Page

In 2023, the Montana Legislature passed a bipartisan resolution designating the first week of April as Montana Soil Health Week and the first Wednesday in April as Montana Soil Health Day. The weeklong celebration is designed to raise awareness about how healthy soils can increase crop yields, strengthen food security, create greater climate resiliency, and improve nutrition. We think it is a great opportunity to publicize all the work that districts do!

The Outreach Team of the MACD Education Work Group has been working hard by collecting and creating resources to help districts participate in Soil Health Week which takes place April 1st- April 6th. So far we’ve collected education materials for soil health related events, pre-made social media packs, and tons of great videos. Please take some time to check out these resources and if you have anything to add, please email it to communications@macdnet.org and we can get it online!

To help districts, partner organizations, and individuals participate, we created a new website for the event: https://montanasoilhealthweek.macdnet.org/
