Today we learn from Tom Marrero of Wakefield BioChar. He shares the background and history of biochar, plus the research and background that led him to start his family business. For those of you excited for a composting specific episode again, I promise that will come soon.
So what exactly is biochar, what can it do and what can it not do? Tom tells us all of this and why it is used for soil health and remediation.
The last portion is about the different types of biochar and the process of making it, and understanding the overall sustainability of biochar.
