Thank you for writing this post! This past summer I worked at a community farm where many of the members used their farm plot in addition to a backyard garden at home- gardens in densely populated cities of India and though it may seem an obvious thing to do, I never questioned if they sampled their Plant. Likewise I never really thought about soil contamination in my parents’ garden in the NYC suburbs. Now as I look forward to moving into a more urban setting next year, I have grown more interested in urban gardening and am trying to educate myself on the subject.
Soil test recommendation Thanks again for raising awareness on this subject.
