Our Soil x Uptown Summer: Soil Lead Testing

Abby, Dan, and Hannah joined the Uptown Summer teens on the fourth Wednesday of Uptown Summer to screen the soil samples taken in the prior week for lead. We did not detect lead in the samples taken from the Collard City Garden and Troy Little League, meaning that the samples contain less than 200 parts per million of lead.

While we were doing the testing, The Sanctuary for Independent Media’s radio team recorded some of our group discussion that you can listen to here.
