Event description invites participants to join the Washington Soil Health Initiative for a field day at Hedges Family Estate, described as an organic and biodynamic vineyard. The program will explain and demonstrate the use of hydroseeding to establish under-vine cover crops. Additional text explains that hydroseeding involves spraying a mixture of seed, recycled paper mulch or straw, and water onto soil to encourage rapid vegetation establishment and weed suppression. A photo at the lower right shows vineyard rows with blue-green hydroseed material applied along the ground and the word “Hydroseeding!” overlaid on the image.
