Forestry mulching
Standing brush, saplings and undergrowth ground into mulch right where they stand — no burn pile, no haul-off.
01The work
What this service covers
Forestry mulching clears land in a single pass with a single machine. A mulching head on the front of our compact track loader grinds standing brush, saplings and undergrowth down where they stand, and the material drops straight onto the ground as a layer of mulch. Nothing gets pushed into a pile, nothing gets burned, and nothing leaves on a truck.
That mulch layer isn't waste. It holds the soil in place, keeps the dust and the mud down, and breaks back into the ground over the season. It's a good fit for thinning out woods, opening up pasture and food plots, taking back a lot that has grown over, or cutting a trail or a fence line through heavy cover. How long an acre takes comes down to how thick it is, how the ground lies and how well we can get to it, so we'll walk the property and price the real job.

02What we bring
The kit for forestry mulching
The work runs off a JCB compact track loader. What changes from job to job is the attachment on the front of it.
For forestry mulching that’s the mulcher head. The same loader takes the grapple, bucket and stump grinder too, so the attachment gets picked to suit what’s actually on the ground.
