Forestry Mulching in Wisconsin
We get more done in a day than Two laborers could do in a week.
We grind brush, buckthorn, honeysuckle, and small trees into mulch right where they stand — no burning, no hauling, no torn-up ground. One machine, one operator, one clean pass.
Serving Sheboygan, Plymouth, Kohler, Cedarburg, Mequon, Port Washington, West Bend, Fond du Lac, Manitowoc, Green Bay, and the greater Milwaukee metro.
We also spend time in Northern Wisconsin - part-time based in Florence and Forest Counties.
What We Clear
Buckthorn & Honeysuckle
Wisconsin’s two most invasive woody shrubs. Our CTL Mulcher does more work in an hour than two people can do by hand in a day.
Overgrown Wooded Lots
Are there parts of your property you can’t walk through? We open them up — selectively or wall-to-wall — turning impenetrable brush into enjoyable land.
Brushy Fence Lines & Edges
Pasture borders, woodland edges, and overgrown property lines cleared cleanly so you can re-fence, mow, or seed.
Small Trees Up to 8”
Our tracked mulcher takes down trees up to 8-inches and turns them into mulch. Stumps are ground down to dirt level.
Hunting Land Improvement
Shooting lanes, bedding areas, food plots, and trail systems shaped for whitetail and turkey. We hunt too — we know what works. Deer are lazy - take advantage of that and bring them to your stand locations.
Storm-Damaged Woods
Tangled blowdown processed in place. The mulched debris becomes a moisture-holding ground cover that stops erosion and feeds the soil.
How It Works — And Why It’s Better Than Bulldozing
Free On-Site Quote
We walk your property together and agree on a project scope and price.
Project Day - Mulching
The tracked mulcher chews vegetation down to a layer of mulch. Unwanted material gets processed on the spot.
Walk-Away Clean
No burn piles. No trips to the dump. No stress. The mulch protects the soil and breaks down into nutrients over time.
Compared to bulldozing, Forestry Mulching is substantially cheaper and doesn't damage or upset the topsoil.
If you're looking to build a home on the site - bulldozing is the way to go.
If you just want to create open spaces, trails, food plots, or shooting-lanes (while maintaining the soils health), there's nothing better than Forestry Mulching.

Watch our forestry mulcher head come to life. Those knives cut through buckthorn, honeysuckle, and small trees - turning them into playground mulch.
Before & After
From impenetrable to walkable in a single day — no burn piles, no torn-up topsoil, no piles of debris to haul away.
What Does It Cost?
Prior to starting, we agree on a project scope and contract price.
On average, we price projects to be $250 per machine hour.
Light Brush, Flat Ground
Scattered brush, small saplings, easy access. Pasture re-take, fence-line clearing, re-opening overgrown trails.
Average Overgrown Area
Mixed brush, buckthorn, honeysuckle, some smaller trees. The most common job we run.
Dense Hardwoods or Steep Terrain
Thick mature stands, hilly ground, limited access. Quoted after walking the property.
We provide a contract price prior to starting work.
We don't track hours - we only leave when the job is complete to your satisfaction.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does forestry mulching cost in Wisconsin?
Most residential jobs in Sheboygan County and Southeast Wisconsin run $1,500–$2,500 per acre depending on density. Steep ground or extremely thick stands can run $3,500 per acre. Small jobs under an acre typically $900 to $1,500. We quote every property after a free on-site walk — no surprises.
What’s the difference between forestry mulching and bulldozing?
Bulldozing scrapes the topsoil along with the vegetation, leaves bare erosion-prone ground, and costs roughly 2–3x more. Forestry mulching grinds vegetation in place, leaves a protective mulch layer that breaks down into nutrients, and preserves your soil. For most Wisconsin landowners, mulching is the better choice unless you’re prepping for new construction.
When is the best time of year to mulch?
Year-round in Wisconsin. Spring / Summer / Fall projects are great because of the weather and the immense Before/After effect you get with walking your land after project completion. Winter work is also great because the frozen ground is better for the heavy track-loader to work on. Whatever the conditions, we'll get the job done!
Will buckthorn or honeysuckle grow back after mulching?
Both are aggressive re-sprouters. Most Land Owners hire us to do the heavy lifting in the first year with the Forestry Mulcher - we turn large invasive plants and trees into mulch the first year. That opens things up so the Land Owner can follow up the next season to take down re-sprouts with a regular lawn mower or weed-wacker. You'll need to cut down the resprouts for 2 to 3 years before the invasive plants are truly killed.
Do I have to be home during the work?
No. As long as we’ve walked the property together and marked anything you want left standing (specimen trees, hunting blinds, irrigation lines, etc.), we can run the job whether you’re there or not. We send before-and-after photos when we wrap up.
