Hi Seth,
The Biochar Handbook by Kelpie Wilson is now available from Chelsea Green Publishing.
“A brief yet thorough introduction to the history, science, and practicalities of biochar-making and its tremendous potential to restore degraded soils. Highly recommended.”
—David R. Montgomery, author of Dirt and Growing a Revolution
“Finally! A book on biochar that is not merely evangelizing, but written by someone with experience, who has read and done the research in order to learn the actual facts about what biochar is, what it does, and how it can be used at any scale of agriculture. It’s good to see this subject finally addressed in a practical, no-nonsense way. Thumbs up!”
