Clearing Land Around Pine City
Pine City is the south end of our service area, and the land shows it. There is more farmland, more oak and maple, and more people on small acreages than farther north. The Snake River runs through town with Cross Lake on one side and Pokegama Lake up the river to the west. Forestry mulching in Pine City is mostly about cleanup and control. Woodlots here get invaded by buckthorn, prickly ash and honeysuckle. Fencerows fill with box elder. A mulching head knocks all of it down at once. Our forestry mulching page explains how.
Buckthorn deserves its own paragraph. It leafs out early, holds its leaves late and shades out everything under it, so a woodlot full of it has no young oak coming up. Mulching is a fast way to take the standing buckthorn out. It will try to resprout, so follow-up matters, and we will tell you that up front. We do not spray. Our buckthorn guide goes into what to expect. For general thinning under hardwoods, see brush and underbrush clearing.
What We Clear In Pine City
Hobby farms and horse places are common around Rock Creek, Henriette and the townships near town. Their owners need pasture kept open and fences kept clear, and many have a wooded back corner they would like to ride through. We do fence line clearing and cut riding trails wide enough for a horse and rider or a side by side. On the lakes, cabin and home lots get the same selective cleanup, with shoreland rules in mind. Pine County zoning can tell you what applies on Cross Lake or Pokegama.
- Buckthorn in oak woodlots
- Box elder in fencerows

Pine City Questions
Can forestry mulching get rid of buckthorn in Pine City?
It removes the standing buckthorn quickly, including thickets you cannot walk through. It does not kill the roots, and cut buckthorn sends up sprouts. Plan on a follow-up step, such as repeated mowing or a treatment you arrange separately. We only do the mechanical clearing, and we say so before the job.
Do you work on small acreages around Pine City, or only big parcels?
Both. An acre behind a house, a horse paddock edge and a long fencerow are all fine. Small jobs still get a walk-through and a free estimate. What matters to the estimate is the brush, the ground and the access, not how many acres are on the tax statement.
Is spring a bad time to clear in Pine County?
Early spring can be. When frost is coming out, fields and woods are soft and any machine will leave tracks. We usually wait until the ground firms up. Once it does, late spring is a fine time, before the brush is fully leafed out and while you can still see through the woods.
