Soil Test Presentation

Have you ever wondered why you would need to test your soil? Or how to find a reliable soil test? How to gather samples? How to fill out the soil test form?

Wonder no more! On Wednesday, July 13th at 6 pm, Quakertown Borough will sponsor a presentation by the Master Gardeners of Bucks County. This FREE presentation will take place at the new Quakertown Community Garden at 670 South Main Street, behind Free Fall Action Park.

Master Gardeners Deb Winton and Joan Pavlica will demonstrate how to sample your soil and how to submit it to the Penn State Soil Lab. Master Gardener/Master Watershed Steward James Walter will explain how to interpret the results of a soil test. Jim is a retired Chemical Engineer with 30 years of experience in Product Development and is the Author of 41 Patents. He holds a Ph.D. from the University of California and a B.S. from the University of Virginia.

NO REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED AND ANYONE CAN ATTEND. (Soil Test Kits will be available for sale.)
