Dear Darryl,

Here is the website for the Soil and Plant Tissue Testing Laboratory at the
University of Massachussets - Amherst. They do a great US $ 8.00 soil test (
per sample) which includes all heavy metals. They also do a very complex
test for every nutrient known to man for  $12 a sample.  Garden coordinators
from all over the midwest and northeastern US use them for price, speed and
accuracy.

Best wishes,

I would like know where I can get soil tested at as I live in a state
(Illinois) that doesn't have an extension office to send my soil too. So I
am asking for some labs in Indiana, Michigan or Wisconsin or even in this
state. I called the Chicago Botanical Garden for 3 labs and none of the
numbers were getting thru to a lab. One of the numbers was out of service.
