Community Garden

During this lab, we went to the local community garden and looked at the soil there.  We collected several samples and measured what they are.  We used Munsell's soil chart to distinguish the soil.  The soil we chose was 7.5 yr 4/4.  We also learned about how lead from old paints on houses can get into the soil on some community gardens.  This causes problems in highly urban areas because of the high use of lead based paints.
