Setting up a DIY facility for community soil testing and care (Pilot)

projects

We are part of a collective that has been working together to establish a community soil clinic, offering free and low cost soil testing for growers, community gardeners and anyone with an interest in caring for their local environment. The soil clinic will hopefully one day offer a drop in space to connect, share skills, learn together about soil health, and make use of specialist equipment like microscopes and soil chemistry tests.

We have now completed our pilot project in 4 gardens across London to test different methods. You can visit our online archive to find out more about the project, and what we are learning.

The pilot has been funded by Necessity, London National Park City and the Landscape Research Group
