What is forestry mulching and

how does it work?
Forestry mulching is the process of cutting down

small trees and other overgrown vegetation.  

 

What types of vegetation can be mulched?

• Small trees (up to 10" in diameter)

• Brush

• Bushes

• Downed trees

 

How long does it take?

A 1 acre tract with medium overgrowth generally takes 4-8 hours.  The thickness of the brush and accessibility of the property can play a part in how long the clearing process will take.

​

What happens to the mulch afterward?

The mulch will be spread on the ground during the mulching process.  If the mulch is left in place, it adds a layer of protection against erosion.  This enhances soil quality by preserving moisture and enhances the regrowth of grass with fewer weeds.

​

The mulch can also be removed or relocated.  Skid steer services are available upon request.
