Free Soil Lead Screening

Join the Allegheny County Conservation District and partners on March 18 to learn why soil lead contamination is a serious problem in Pittsburgh. Bring a properly collected, dry soil sample from your yard or garden and it will be screened for lead and other heavy materials, free of charge! Staff will be on hand to answer questions and provide information.

For more information, contact Jonathan Burgess (ACCD) at 412-291-8017. See Grow Pittsburgh’s page on soil sampling for instructions.

Check out the Free Soil Lead Screening flier (including a soil sample diagram) for all the information.
