Hosted by: Alameda County Conservation Partnership

Join the Alameda County Conservation Partnership (ACRCD, NRCS) for an educational workshop about soil sampling and testing for farmers! This event is especially for those new to farming or who have not been trained in soil sampling protocols.

  • Attendees will participate in a conversation about the basics and value of soil sampling, reading soil test results, and available resources.
  • Attendees will step into the field to learn best practices for soil sampling for lab analysis and review how different field conditions could affect soil testing results.
  • Attendees are encouraged to bring results from their own soil tests if they have them.

The Workshop is open to the public. Attendance is limited: priority will be given to farmers/ranchers within Alameda County.
