biochar

Hello all, We are attempting the IO credit at the Catholic University of America by adding a lesson plan to our Principles of Environmental course to make our own biochar (a soil additive that sequesters carbon, helps with water retention, improves storm water management, and aids soil health. More info here: http://www.biochar-international.org/biochar ) by purchasing charcoal and inoculating it with our own compost. We will then spread it on our community garden planter boxes. The produce is then donated to charitable causes. Thank you in advance for any and all feedback.
