Wildfire Recovery & Bioremediation with Soil Biology
“Wildfires can leave behind far more than burned landscapes, they can disrupt the living soil systems that ecosystems depend on to recover. In this webinar, Christine Lenches-Hinkel of 301 Organics and landowner Linda Gibbs explore how the Soil Food Web Approach is being used to restore fire-affected soils, remediate contamination, and rebuild resilient landscapes.
Drawing on data collected from more than 35 properties impacted by California's 2025 Eaton Fire, Christine will share how reintroducing beneficial soil biology can accelerate ecological recovery, support new plant establishment, and contribute to the remediation of fire-impacted soils. Linda complements the science with her firsthand story of losing her Malibu home to wildfire and using Soil Food Web principles to help restore the health, resilience, and vitality of her land. Together, they offer both the scientific foundation and real-world experience behind one of nature's most powerful tools for post-fire recovery.”
