Forestry mulching is an excellent and cost effective option for customers looking to add value and appeal to their property. In layman’s terms, forestry mulching is “mowing” of an area of forest or underbrush using special attachments. This process turns overgrown trees, shrubs, and brush into a “park like” mulch and leaves a much desired appearance. Mulching returns the nutrients back into the soil while encouraging the health and growth of the remaining surrounding trees.

Benefits of Forestry Mulching

• Cost effective. One machine and operator. Alleviates the need for multiple pieces of equipment needed for major clearing.

• Prevents soil erosion. The disruption of larger equipment such as bulldozers or log skidders following a clearing job can play a negative effect on the surrounding trees and plants desired to be left. Rain and wind can deteriorate bare ground having a negative impact on your property. Mulching leaves behind the the organic materials of the trees and brush which act as a barrier to mother nature.

• Returns nutrients back into the soil. Mulch and organic matter will break down over time and enrich the soil. This creates a healthy environment for new growth and desired remaining trees.

• Landscaping. The results following a forestry mulching operation leaves the presence of an attractive “mulch like” appearance one would see at a public park or walking trail. No brush piles left to be burned or heaps of stumps; just mulch.
