Garden Walk note, part 1

We’ve been asked for information about the soil testing services mentioned on our recent Garden Walk. I’ve asked Tim & Kirk to share who they’ve used in their respective gardens, and they each gave me the name of a company they’ve used.

Kirk has sent materials to:

Libby Environmental
4139 Libby Road NE
Olympia, WA 98506
360-352-2110
li******@*ol.com

They don’t conduct soil nutrient testing, just heavy metals, etc.

Tim has used Timberleaf Soil Testing in CA for nutrient/micronutrient information.

I’ll be continuing to post notes about the walk. If there’s anything you’re particularly curious about, leave a comment on this post!
