Thank you for your question, Julie. Unfortunately, none of the metro Extension offices provide this service. I suggest that you contact the soil clinic at OSU (https://cropandsoil.oregonstate.edu/shl/testing-services/soil-testing) or A & L Western Agricultural Labs (https://al-labs-west.com/soil-analysis/) to submit samples and get their analysis. Good luck!
