Free Soil Testing at RWP Botanical Center

First Saturday of the month, 10:00 am – 1:00 pm

This program will happen *every Saturday morning from 10am-1pm (except July and August). Bring your soil samples on March 1, April 5, May 3, June 7, September 6, October 4.

URI Master Gardeners are coming back! Starting March 1, URI master Gardener volunteers will test visitor’s soil’s pH.

Soil testing for pH helps:

  • Determine which types of nutrients are available for plants to absorb through their root systems.
  • Ensure optimal plant growth and crop yield by allowing nutrients to be freely available.
  • Encourage proper root development and nutrition distribution.
  • Maintain a healthy amount of microbial activity in the soil.

This program will happen *every Saturday morning from 10am-1pm (except July and August). Bring your soil samples on March 1, April 5, May 3, June 7, September 6, October 4.

Thank you, RWP family!!! We may not have reached our goal, but all of you got us to over $7,000 – more than twice as much as last year! 🌳🎉

Whether you donated, shared our page with friends, liked our posts, or sent good vibes our way, we appreciate your support and investment in the People's Park! A gift to Roger Williams Park Conservancy builds and strengthens social and civic connections in a public green space we all share and steward. 

With @pvdparks and our Park partners, we can't wait to show you another year of programming, community-building, and fun! 🌞

If you donated $100 or more, watch your email over the next week for an invite to a party celebrating you at the @rwpboathousecafe! 🥂
