<p>Hello all,</p>
<p>I will be heading back home soon for 4th of July. My family and I in NH are looking for farms that use the ocean based fertilizer. It seems to becoming more known which is great! We'd love to purchase food out in NH that is fully mineralized. Massachusetts may work too.</p>
<p>Please let me know!</p>
<p>Thank you,</p>

We create art and games that explore our relationship to others (human and non-human) and how those relationships are tangled up in the commons.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This summer we will be installing a sculpture at</span> <a href="https://www.franconia.org/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Franconia Sculpture Park</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">in Minnesota, about an hour from Minneapolis, that will explore the potential for soil remineralization to increase the carbon holding capacity of the surrounding soil*. It will explore both direct application of minerals as well as the interactions between soil, plants, animals, and arthropods.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We are currently looking for collaborators who might be interested in any or all of the following:</span></p>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Speaking with us about soil formation and human land use in the area</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">soil remineralization and its ability to increase soil’s carbon holding capacity</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">a project for a class to identify the soil types at the park and potentially examine the impact of the project on the soil</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Anyone interested in the project with thoughts or collaborations not mentioned above</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I thought the Remineralize the Earth forum might be a good place to find suggestions for resources or people I should know about in the area. We are excited to talk about different possibilities of collaborating. If you have any thoughts about other folks who might be interested in working with us in anyway please let me know.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I've also attached a PDF that gives an intro to the project as well.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Thanks!</span></p>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I have just joined this forum and have just ordered my first delivery of volcanic rock dust. I have been a small gardener for years but now I have had two fairly successful years of growing my own organic veggies. I have been adding a small amount of Epsom salts to my garden and I know that magnesium isn't the only mineral that is missing from the soil.

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I have just joined this forum and have just ordered my first delivery of volcanic rock dust. I have been a small gardener for years but now I have had two fairly successful years of growing my own organic veggies. I have been adding a small amount of Epsom salts to my garden and I know that magnesium isn't the only mineral that is missing from the soil. I have some budgerigars and give them a mineralised grit called Versa laga of which I have more than I need. I was wondering if it would be OK to sprinkle some of this around the garden as well as the volcanic rock dust. It contains some coral, oyster shell and granite but being a very small grit would take longer to break down and be useful. Would anyone recommend I use some and at what rate if it would help. Looking forward to getting some replies.</p>

My background is mostly in philosophy, and I drew upon a lot of philosophy in the article. It would be good to have other perspectives, since many of the ethical issues depend on facts relating to the sciences, engineering, economics, politics, agriculture, and more. It is important to be clear not only about what works and what is feasible as a response to climate change, but also about what is ethically acceptable.</font></p>

<p>I work for a family-run business that owns three quarries north of the Raleigh/Durham area (Carolina Sunrock LLC). One of these quarries is a traprock quarry (diabase basalt) located in Butner, NC. This particular quarry is the only traprock quarry in the southeast. We also have a granite gneiss quarry in Woodsdale, NC and another granite quarry in Kittrell, NC. I would be happy to accommodate for any orders of our aggregates, including rock dust.

Depending on size, we can send material by mail (UPS, US Mail, etc), truckload, or even railroad...we are rail-served out of Butner, and will be rail-served out of the other two quarries in the coming years. </p>

<p>Greetings </p>
<p>I am wanting to know if any of the members are using rock dust as a foliage spray?</p>
<p>I spoke to a farmer who used it and said it damaged his pistons in his pump? </p>
<p>Is there another type of pump,</p>
<p>Secondly rock dust does not dilute completely in water and needs to be kept in suspension?</p>
<p>Please can anyone assist.</p>
