Soil Sampling

We are happy to partner with the American Farmland Trust (link their name to their website: Contact Us – American Farmland Trust) this year to offer free soil sampling to farmers! We are able to come to your farm and to test up to three fields per farmer during April 1st to June 1st and September 1st to November 1st.

The Basic Soil Health Analysis Package tests for the following: Soil pH, Organic Matter, Modified Morgan Extractable, P, K, Ca, Mg, S, Al, B, Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn, Wet Aggregate Stability, Active Carbon, Total Carbon and Nitrogen and Soil Organic Carbon. These tests would cost $90.00 per field, that is a total of $270.00 that farmers are saving by participating in our program.

Farmers must fill out two AFT surveys in order to receive the free-soil sample. Please allow 6-8 weeks for processing at the lab. We are happy to also partner with UNH Cooperative Extension Coös County Office Extension or data analysis and management plan implementation.
