Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers about forestry mulching and land clearing in Clare County, Michigan.
What is the difference between forestry mulching and traditional land clearing?
Traditional clearing cuts trees, piles them, and burns or hauls the debris. Forestry mulching grinds trees and brush into mulch right where they stand, in a single pass. That means no burn piles, less soil disturbance, and less erosion.
What happens to the mulch?
It stays on site as a protective ground cover. It helps control erosion, holds moisture, slows down new brush growth, and returns nutrients to the soil as it breaks down.
How long do jobs take?
Small lots and fence lines are often done in a day. Larger multi-acre jobs can take a week or more depending on terrain, tree cover, and weather.
What types of land and vegetation can be mulched?
Overgrown fields, fence lines, hunting trails, wooded lots, and underbrush around homes and cabins. Brush, saplings, and small to medium trees are ideal. Call and describe your property for a recommendation.

What does tree spade service include?
We dig the new hole with the spade, lift the tree with its root ball intact, move it, and set it in the new spot. It is a great way to relocate a tree or plant a larger one.
