Working in Madison
Dane County is lakes and rolling farm country, getting hillier and more wooded toward the west. Hobby farms, hunting land and wooded acreage outside the city are where brush and invasive growth take over.
Forestry mulching clears that ground without burn piles or hauling. Brush and small trees are mulched where they stand, which opens up pasture, trails, fence lines and building sites and leaves the soil covered.
Wisconsin is outside our regular range. We travel this far for bigger projects, several acres or several days of work, so call with the acreage and the kind of ground and we will tell you whether it is a fit.
What we get called for here
- Forestry Mulching. Standing brush and saplings ground into cover in one pass. Nothing burned, nothing hauled.
- Land Clearing. Wooded or neglected acreage opened back up for pasture, food plots, or a building site.
- Right-of-Way Clearing. Fence rows, field edges, trails and utility corridors put back to passable.
- Grading & Land Leveling. Low spots filled, high spots cut, water sent where you actually want it.

Do you work year-round?
Yes. Mulching and clearing carry on through the colder months, and winter is often the better time for it — the ground is firm, there are no leaves in the way, and you can see what you’re working with. Snow plowing runs through the same season.
How long does a job take?
Small jobs — a fence row, an overgrown lot, a driveway regrade — are often a day or less. An acre of heavy, mature growth takes considerably longer than an acre of light brush. You’ll get a realistic time estimate along with the price, not an optimistic one.
Do I need to be there while the work is done?
Not usually. What matters is that the boundaries are clear and we agree beforehand on exactly what’s coming out and what’s staying. Marking anything you want left — a good tree, a well head, a buried line, a property pin — is time well spent.
What size jobs do you take?
Anything from a single overgrown lot up to multi-acre clearing and full site work. Smaller jobs closer to home are easy to fit in; smaller jobs at the far edge of the service area are best paired with other work in the same week.
