The situation we usually walk into
Plantation blocks accumulate vegetation that nobody has budgeted for: undergrowth that makes access and assessment difficult, regrowth between rotations, boundaries and firebreaks that have closed in, and wilding spread off the edges. It is all on terrain that is steep by definition, and it is rarely urgent enough to justify bringing in heavy plant.
What we do about it
Forestry mulching that processes material into the ground layer on site, at up to 200mm to 300mm, on slopes to 55 degrees. Nothing is carted out and nothing is burned. We work boundaries, firebreaks, access routes and undergrowth, and we take on wilding conifer spread off plantation edges.
Typical jobs
- Undergrowth clearing for access and assessment
- Inter-rotation regrowth clearing

Weeds that come with this territory
- Wilding pinesA national problem at landscape scale. Catch them small and it is a mulching job; leave them and it becomes a forestry operation.
- GorseThe big one. Dense, spiny, seeds for decades, and it takes hold on exactly the slopes a tractor cannot work.
- BroomGorse's close relative without the spines. Same long-lived seed bank, same habit of taking over steep and stony ground.
