Healthy soils are key to healthy food and healthy bodies. Terra Ay Ay is committed to testing St. Croix’s soil quality by partnering with small and mid-sized farm owners, as well as community members with ‘backyard farms,’ to gather soil samples.

The results from the soil tests are collected and shared online, along with important information about how food growers can reduce the negative impacts from industrial pollution and climate-related risks and damage.
