Athletic and Playing Field Restoration - Lincoln Landscaping of Franklin Lakes

Lincoln Landscaping of Franklin Lakes

My passion has taken me into athletic field management, where in organics we term them Playing Fields; ever reminding us that children are playing on these fields and every precaution should be taken to insure their safety. At Lincoln Landscaping Inc. we have learned the organic process and have a way to develop organic turf and organic gardens that really work. Our properties whether residential, commercial or schools are living examples that organics really work.

Providing Safety on Athletic Playing Fields – Lincoln Landscaping Inc. of Franklin Lakes

Citing drainage issues; Lincoln Landscaping removed existing turf within the infield areas, regraded the affected field areas and added 200 yards topsoil, compost and 50 tons of infield mix and then resodded the infield at Morris Knolls High School Varsity Baseball Field.

Spring baseball, and the call of Play Ball will echo through the Knolls of Rockaway come the 2019 baseball season; and the kids will be enjoying a safe and beautiful playing field. Just another example of quality athletic and playing field turf management by Lincoln Landscaping of Franklin Lakes, NJ.

Drainage is the removal of excess water from the soil surface and/or soil profile. Some fields may have adequate drainage because the field was constructed properly. However, poor drainage is one of the most common problems of high use sports fields. When water remains on the field surface and does not drain many problems occur including slippery and unsafe conditions.Organic Soil Amendment and Sod Installation for Athletic Playing Field Safety Issues If these issues are not rectified in a timely manner games are cancelled and maintenance practices need to be initiated, which often require even more down time on the field to take effect.

Soils for sports turf must have good footing and traction for athlete safety and performance.

Soils that are easily compacted, have a low amount of organic matter, have poor nutrient and water holding capacity and poor drainage are not suitable for sports turf. Organic soil amendments (i.e. compost, peats) function by enhancing soil structure (in non-sandy soils) and aeration as well as contributing to improved nutrient and water retention. Soil resiliency can also be increased with organic amendments.
