Upper Pittsgrove Township is the farming heart of northeastern Salem County. It leads New Jersey in acres of active agriculture and preserved farmland, and almost 8,000 of its 25,000 acres are preserved farms. Route 77 and U.S. Route 40 cross the township and meet at Pole Tavern Circle, named for a Revolutionary War liberty pole. Its villages include Monroeville, Daretown, Newkirk, Pole Tavern, Shirley, Whig Lane and Woods Mills, the Salem River rises here, and the Pittsgrove Presbyterian Church is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Upper Pittsgrove is farm country. Salem County’s hazard mitigation plan counted 1,009 farm buildings in the township in 2021. Most of our work here is on farmsteads, rural homes and long lanes off Route 77, Route 40, Buck Road and Commissioners Pike, where big shade trees stand next to houses, barns and equipment sheds.
Our tree removal crews take down dead, split and leaning trees without tearing up fields, fences or farm drives. Our tree pruning lifts limbs clear of roofs, wires and the path of farm equipment, with every cut made to ANSI A300 standards. For overgrown fencerows and lots, our land clearing equipment handles the brush and small trees in one pass.
Emerald ash borer has now been detected in all 21 New Jersey counties, according to the USDA Forest Service 2024 New Jersey Forest Health Highlights, and beech leaf disease was confirmed in Salem County in 2023. The New Jersey Forest Service also contacted Upper Pittsgrove Township about active southern pine beetle infestations in August 2011. A dead ash or a declining beech next to a barn is worth dealing with before a storm decides for you.
When Salem County updated its hazard mitigation plan, Upper Pittsgrove’s high-wind ranking was raised from moderate to high after public review. That matches what we see: open farmland gives wind a long run at tree lines and farmsteads. In July 2023 a thunderstorm flipped a shed near Route 40 and Pole Tavern Circle.
The June 29-30, 2012 derecho drove gusts of 60 to nearly 90 mph across southern New Jersey, took down numerous trees and power lines, and left hundreds of thousands of customers without power, some for at least a week. On September 1, 2021, the EF-3 tornado from the remnants of Hurricane Ida began near Harrisonville, just across the Gloucester County line, before tracking northeast through Mullica Hill.
