Do I need to add Lime to my Yard #804696

Hello!
My yard is not very green even with watering on odd days and applying fertilizer. I am assuming I may need lime.
I know one of the first steps to answer this question is to find out what the PH of my soil is. Can you tell me what kind of sample I need to take and which office should I take it too for results?
Thanks
