Soil On Site - Sandy Clay Loam

This soil type, with its small macro porosity somewhat hinders the movement of water, leading to large amounts of runoff, and flooding when excessive rain occurs.

Types of Organisms: Birds, Squirrells, chipmunks, deer, and possums.

These organisms add organic matter when they do their business which increases the nutrients in the soil, leading to good nutrients for the plants.

The soil is likely to be eroded due to its small particle size. This could lead to pollution in the water on site, filled with soil runoff.
