Soil Testing

Soil testing can boost garden yield and quality, and improve your lawn and landscape. If you have not had your soil tested, now is a great time to do that. Each year, many homeowners fertilize their lawn, garden and landscape without a soil test. How do you know you are applying the right fertilizer at the correct amount? You might waste quite a bit of money on unneccessary fertilizer or wrong fertilizer. Worse yet, the excessive fertilizer might end up in our drinking water.

Find out more about getting a soil test through Delaware county extension office.
