Let's find out! Come to a free soil lead screening event this Saturday, 9/9/23 at the Norwich Farmers Market, 281 Rte. 5 South in Norwich.
This is a free health education event where community members are offered free lead screenings to raise awareness of potential lead presence in their soil sample and about how to avoid exposure to lead while gardening
Bring up to three soil samples from your vegetable or other garden with edible plants. Soils will be screened for lead only but we'll have fee-based soil kits available for full nutrient analysis.
