Participants will bring soil samples from their own gardens and will learn to assess the texture, color, drainage, fertility, pH and type of soil. Includes a pH test!

Knowing more about your soil can really help your gardening practice. Participants will bring in soil samples from their own gardens and will learn to assess the texture, color, drainage, fertility, pH and type of soil.

Participants will also learn how to read soil analysis results and how to use the online Web Soil Survey tool to see detailed information about soils on their property.

Pre-registration is strongly recommended so that we have participants' contact information on file in case of cancellation due to weather or low enrollment.
