Abstract
  • Healthy soils are the basis for sustainable gardening. Although agricultural soils have been extensively studied, we know surprisingly little about residential and community garden soils. We studied the physical, biological, and chemical characteristics of soils from 67 vegetable garden in the Willamette Valley, and compared these to published recommendations for healthy soils. We collected soil samples from in-ground and raised garden beds. The soil samples came from gardens tended by Oregon State University Extension Master Gardener volunteers. Since Master Gardeners receive training in soil health and fertility, we anticipated that soils would thus fall within recommended ranges.
  • In cooperation with 10-Minute University, and funded by the Clackamas County Master Gardener Association, these briefs will help you translate research findings into sustainable gardening practices.
