Forestry Mulching & Clearing
Pasture, Brush & Large Tree Removal
What Is Forestry Mulching?
Forestry mulching is a land-clearing technique that uses a specialized machine to cut, grind, and clear vegetation — brush, small trees, vines, undergrowth — and leaves the material as mulch directly on site.
Unlike traditional clearing (bulldozing, burning, hauling), mulching minimizes disturbance to soil, preserves root systems, and speeds up restoration of usable land.
How We Do It (Our Process)
Initial Assessment & Goal Setting
Walk the property, evaluate vegetation type (brush, thicket, large trees), terrain, and soil conditions.
Determine your goals: pasture reclaiming, opening view, building site prep, firebreak, right-of-way, etc.
Customized Plan & Permitting
Define the machine size needed. Investigate any local rules (city limits, waterways, endangered species, etc.).
Plan for safe access for machinery and erosion control.
Vegetation Clearing & Mulching
Use heavy-duty mulching machines capable of handling large trees.
Mulching happens in stages if needed: heavier timber, brush, then finish work.
For thorny locust, hedge, etc., apply licensed herbicide in coordination to prevent regrowth.
Finishing & Cleanup
Remove or pile obstacles if desired (logs, cut trees). Clean up around buildings/structures.
Grade or smooth access paths, driveways, and pen areas. Install drainage, culverts, and crossings if part of the scope.
Regrowth Control & Follow-Up
Return visits as needed; spot-spraying to stop regrowth of invasive or thorny brush.
Offer maintenance mowing or periodic check-ups to preserve cleared land.
From thick brush & plum thickets to giant cottonwoods.
Our Equipment & Capabilities
Heavy forestry mulcher capable of grinding thick brush, small to large trees.
Skid steer attachments for tight or sensitive areas.
Support gear: dozers, trucks, rock spreaders, skid steers, etc.
Safety & compliance: insured, licensed, understanding of local environmental regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
We can handle large trees—including cottonwoods up to 8 ft in diameter. For very large timber, we may use sectional cutting + mulching or removal as needed.
-
Minimal. Mulching leaves soil and root structure intact vs. bulldozing or backhoe excavation. Ruts or disturbances are repaired in the finish phase.Description text goes here
-
No. It decomposes naturally, suppresses weeds, holds moisture, and acts as a mattress for new growth. If you want, we can rake, grade, or haul off clean debris.
-
Mulching typically has fewer regulatory hurdles than burning. We help ensure compliance with local, state, and federal environmental regulations. For work in city limits, we follow local ordinance requirements.
