Overgrown woods with vines and fallen trees before clearing Open, cleared ground with healthy trees kept after mulching Before After

From overgrown
to open ground.

Vines, briars, saplings and dead-fall cleared out. The good trees stay, and the ground is left covered in mulch instead of bare dirt.

  • Keep the trees you want. We flag them with you before we start.
  • Nothing piled or hauled. Brush is mulched right where it stood.
  • Usable right away. Walkable, mowable ground for a yard, pasture or homesite.
