Your soil in Forked River.
We already know it.
Forked River's soil is a mix of Atsion and Berryland sandy loams, influenced by the Forked River itself and the nearby Oyster Creek. The soil tends to be moderately to poorly drained with higher organic content in low-lying areas near waterways. Upland areas feature the typical Ocean County sandy loam that drains well.
Soil type: Sandy loam (Atsion/Berryland series)
Properties in Forked River face varying drainage conditions — homes near the river and bay have higher water tables requiring careful grading, while upland properties have fast-draining sandy soil. The proximity to Barnegat Bay also means salt spray can affect grass health in waterfront areas.
From the waterfront properties along Barnegat Bay to the wooded lots in the western section of Lacey Township, Forked River homeowners appreciate professional sod installation that accounts for the area's unique soil and water conditions.
