Benefits
Wildfire Prevention
Forestry mulching plays a vital role in preventing and managing fires. By significantly reducing flammable vegetation, it helps to reduce fuel and establish defensible spaces around homes and properties, thereby decreasing the likelihood of wildfires spreading. Additionally, the mulch layer effectively retains moisture, making it far less susceptible to ignition compared to dry plants.
Cost-Effective
When you rely on forestry mulching, you can say goodbye to expensive project costs, unnecessary equipment, and excess labor for hauling and disposal (which tends to be exceptionally pricey when moved off-site). Since the mulching process is so efficient, it means less time on projects, lower fuel use, and reduced labor costs, making it the budget-friendly choice for landowners and developers looking to manage and clear land.
Land Accessibility
Clearing land with a forestry mulcher makes it more accessible for various uses, such as agriculture, construction, and recreation. By removing dense brush and undergrowth, forestry mulching creates clear pathways and open spaces, making it easier to navigate and utilize the land.
Minimal Disturbance
Forestry mulching causes minimal disturbance to the soil and surrounding environment compared to traditional land clearing methods. There is no need for burning or hauling away debris, which can disrupt the local ecosystem. The process is also less invasive, preserving the natural landscape and maintaining the integrity of the land.
Pest Control
Forestry mulching helps with pest control by removing the habitat and food sources of pests by shredding and covering vegetation, essentially denying them access to breeding grounds and preventing their populations from growing; this is particularly effective against insects that live within overgrown grasses and brush which are eliminated through the mulching process.
Reduced Erosion
Erosion has become more and more common in areas with less vegetation. However, forestry mulching is proven to help combat this issue, providing a protective layer of mulch on the soil surface. The added layer of mulch retains moisture, protects root systems, and prevents the soil from being washed away by rain water.
Overview
Forestry mulching is a land-clearing technique that involves the use of advanced machinery, such as a mulcher, to shred trees, brushes, vines, and any other vegetation into mulch. Unlike traditional clearing methods that involve cutting and hauling debris, this technique leaves behind a rich nutrient mulch that acts as a natural ground cover. The mulched vegetation decomposes over time, enriching the soil and reducing erosion. Removing dense vegetation through mulching also reduces wildfire risk by eliminating potential fuel sources and creating fire breaks.

About Us
Strong Land Clearing was born out of our family's passion for the mountains, being together, and the desire to create a safer, more usable space. After purchasing some land in the mountains, we quickly realized that only a small portion was usable due to dense vegetation, downed trees, and thick underbrush. We were also concerned about the growing risk of wildfires in the area.
After spending many weekends using a tractor to clear small areas for our trailers, we knew we needed a more efficient solution. That's when we discovered forestry mulching and soon after started Strong Land Clearing—a land-clearing business that uses specialized machinery to shred trees, brush, vines, and other vegetation into mulch. Not only does this method make clearing land faster and more effective, but it also helps reduce wildfire risk by eliminating potential fuel sources and creating natural fire breaks.
What started as a personal project soon turned into a thriving family business. We saw an opportunity to offer a much-needed service while continuing to work together as a family in the beautiful area we call home.
Whether you're looking to clear land for personal use, improve fire safety, or make space for development, we’re here to help. With years of experience and a deep connection to the land, Strong Land Clearing is your trusted partner in creating safer, more usable spaces.
