Forestry Mulching InProctor, MN
Proctor sits on top of the hill with wooded acreage on every side. We clear brush, cut trails and open lots there with a single mulching machine.
Clearing Land Around Proctor
Proctor itself is a compact railroad town, but step outside the city streets and you are in the woods. Midway Township and Solway Township wrap around it with hobby farms, wooded homesites and plenty of land nobody has touched in decades. People looking for forestry mulching in Proctor are usually on that kind of ground. They own several acres, they use one of them, and they want the rest back. One pass with a mulching head turns hazel, alder and sapling popple into a mat of chips. See how forestry mulching works if the method is new to you.
Access is the usual problem here. The back of the property has good hardwood or a nice high spot, and there is no way to get to it but on foot. We cut trails and access lanes wide enough for an ATV, a side by side or a tractor. We route them around the trees you want to keep and the wet holes you want to avoid. The mulch left on the trail packs down into a decent walking and riding surface. It also keeps the mud down in spring.
What We Clear In Proctor
Old pasture is common out here too. Small farms once worked the country west of Proctor, and many of those fields have gone to brush since the cows left. If the stems are still small, field reclamation with a mulcher brings that ground back without piling or burning. It is some of the more satisfying work in St. Louis County, because the field is already there under the brush. You just have to uncover it. Horse owners and hay cutters get the most out of it.
- ATV trails to the back acres
- Grown-over pasture and hayfield
- Wooded homesites outside town
- Brush around sheds and outbuildings
- Property lines on hobby farms

Proctor Questions
Do you travel to Proctor for small jobs?
Yes. Proctor and the townships around it are inside our service area, and a small job is still a job. The size of the work affects the estimate, not our willingness to come. Tell us what you have when you call and we will set a time to walk it.
How wide can you cut a trail on my land near Proctor?
As wide as you need. A walking path, an ATV trail and a lane a tractor can drive are three different widths, and you pick. We can also widen a trail you cut by hand long ago that has since closed in. Wider trails take more machine time, so that affects the estimate.
What happens to the stumps when you mulch in Proctor?
Small stems are taken down to about ground level, so brush and saplings leave nothing to trip over. Larger trees we cut leave a low stub at the surface. We do not dig roots out of the ground. For a trail, a yard edge or a field you plan to brush hog, that is normally all you need.
