Another name for “river soil” is “river loam.”
If that is what you have (and I lived on the banks of a river for 20+ years) you are lucky indeed.
The occasional flooding of the yard is a small price to pay for that kind of soil.
I often told my customers, here in St. George UT, that had I known the kind of soil that existed here, instead of taking a JOB, I would have trucked in the soil from back home.
And sold it to them at ridiculously high prices.

Great minds, eh? I’ve been wondering
if I could make a little profit! :)
