Mastication is a land management method that uses machinery to grind or shred vegetation—like brush, small trees, and undergrowth—into mulch on-site. This process is widely used for erosion control, as the mulch helps stabilize soil and retain moisture. It also supports ecosystem health by reducing overcrowded vegetation, allowing native plants to thrive, and improving wildlife habitats. In broader land management, mastication helps clear overgrowth, reduce wildfire risk, and maintain safer, more accessible landscapes—all while naturally recycling organic material back into the environment.
Road building is the process of constructing roads to provide safe and reliable access for vehicles, equipment, or people. It starts with planning and surveying the land to determine the best route. Then, crews clear vegetation and debris, grade the surface to create a level base, and compact the soil for stability. Layers of gravel, asphalt, or other materials are added to create a durable driving surface. Proper drainage systems are also installed to prevent erosion and water damage. Road building is essential for improving access, supporting development, and connecting remote areas.
A fuel break is a strategically cleared or managed strip of land designed to slow or stop the spread of wildfires. By removing or reducing flammable vegetation—like brush, trees, and grasses—fuel breaks create a barrier that can help protect people, property, and natural resources. They also provide safer access for firefighters and emergency crews. Fuel breaks are an essential part of wildfire prevention and land management, especially in fire-prone areas, helping to reduce risk and improve response efforts.
Stump grinding and tree removal are services used to safely take down unwanted or hazardous trees and remove the remaining stump. Tree removal involves cutting down the tree in sections, using ropes and equipment to control the fall and ensure safety. Once the tree is gone, stump grinding is done using a machine that grinds the stump and roots below ground level, turning them into mulch. This process clears the area for new landscaping, prevents regrowth, and eliminates tripping hazards—leaving the land clean, safe, and ready for use.

After plowing, discing closes the furrow made after plowing thus preserving soil quality. Discing will break down large chunks of compacted soil and help will provide weed control and unwanted growth. Discing allow cutting, crushing, and mixing of the soil to allow crop
residue to enter the soil.
