“DANGEROUS SOIL? USE RAISED GARDEN BEDS INSTEAD.”
Here’s some great information information from superseeds.com
“Not all soils are safe for planting and finding contaminants in backyard soil is more common than you might think, particularly around older homes. Fruits and vegetables draw everything up from the soil, including impurities, making your crops unsafe to eat. If your soil test revealed elevated lead levels, don’t give up.
Elevate your game! You can still have a backyard garden by building raised garden beds. Raised garden beds are a fantastic DIY home gardening project and there are wonderful tutorials all over the web that can show you how.
Raised garden beds have all sorts of benefits.Raised bed soil can warm faster, drain better, and resist pathway w**ds, while raised beds provide a barrier than can deter common pests like slugs and snails.Raised vegetable garden soil can be 100% organic and mixed to your exact specifications. You can also designate a bed as acidic or alkaline and customize growing conditions for your crops. “
