Great idea to use a company with the forestry mulcher. Amazing amount of work to get done so quickly. Definitely worth the investment. Your time is worth the cost!

[@davidparkin4392]

Had a young man come out for 3 days last year. The most amazing use of man and machine I ever did to reclaimed many acres of over grown brush and cedar trees. Now I’m pasturing bacon on the cleared forest and left the hickories to mature. My face hurt for days I was smiling so hard!!!

[@sherrysimpson4966]

Jason, I'm 75 yo & never even heard of a forestry mulcher, much less got to watch one in action. Your property is beautiful. Hugs & blessings for your family 🙏🏻🌺🌼🌻🌹❤💙💚

[@TheAcenightcreeper]

I did this when i bought 20 acres and built my home in NC…it was 2800 for 1.5 days of work, but i believe it saved me about 40 days of labor, the land was so overgrown and unmanaged…covered in poison ivy…once he got the trails in, i could get my equipment in and ive been cutting trees down, dragging brush…for about 2 years…still…tons more wildlife though…more turkeys, more deer…

[@mundydiludovico5268]

It’s amazing how much 1 machine can do in a day and you didn’t even break out in a sweat , a lot of people think it’s expensive to hire machinery but if you break it down in time saved you can move onto other projects instead of concentrating on one project for twelve months. Money well spent.

@ 3:13 poor piggies are so hungry they deliriously think they have turned to goats, and started noshing on the chicken coop!

[@marywaltz7871]

i'm amazed! growing up on an 80 acre farm that we had to clear fence rows the same way you were, I wish we'd had something like this back in the 1970's

[@denisewilson8367]

Yeah me too! In the early 60's there was only chainsaws to cut everything by hand with a lot of manual labor. The same for clearing /picking rocks out of the crop fields, by hand. And most were dumped in the fence rows along the fields. Now days they have a piece of equipment that goes on your skid steer to pick up rock. It rotates to shake out the dirt so you can just get the rocks.

[@Hilltop_ranch_]

This is my first time on your channel. If you have a tractor you could uses a flail mower that would help clean up a lot of stuff as well.

[@diannemiller4754]

Jason, you have jumped ahead on your timeline greatly. Nice to see you can continue with your plans on the homestead. Such a blessing.

[@suedonald2583]

I'm so excited for you. I know how hard you have been working on this. This is such a blessing.

[@AngelWerx-2012]

Now you can rent one yourself to maintain what was done and clean it up a bit more and more on your own since the biggest work is done.

[@Will7981]

A mini excavator with a quick detach system and auxiliary hydraulic connection (most come with that), you can put a mulcher head on it and do close to the same thing you just did here. Then of course you can take the mulcher off and use your buckets. Also, you can put things like augers on the excavator to dig fence post holes, cutter decks for bush hogging etc. Just some tips here to increase your knowledge of equipment since you said you are learning it.👍🏻

[@starsearchervideoshorts2-jk9py]

We are watching from Philadelphia Pa. March 6th 2023 Time 18:00 POM POM PICTURE STUDIO great looking family and the land looking good great Forestry Mulcher We SUBSCRIBED and Rang the Bell!! O one last thing Steak -food looks good wife good cook.

[@PaPawsWorkShop]

That is the coolest machine I think I have ever seen. I cannot believe how satisfying it was to watch him work.😁

[@jdiggindirt]

You should really look into a compact tractor 4x4 with front-end loader with bush hog box blade, and then one get a plow a dirt scoop a disk or tiller, and a Harley rake. They also make a small forestry mulcher for small compact tractors now

[@Gardendreamsforme]

What an awesome machine! I learn so much from y’all!!!

[@TiaraPoodles]

OMG! I need that guy here in Bryant, AL for my fence line and more for 22 acres. We have had TWO Forestry Mulchers and they did NOT get such a fine finish.

[@janetwithers7427]

The forestry mulcher is an amazing machine. Wow, so much done in a short time. Good decision. 💞

[@mesutozsen903]

Eline emeğine sağlık bu güzel vlog için kolay gelsin hayırlı işler....👍👍👍👍

[@chasehicks4303]

Linton is one of the best around! Know him for many years even though we live about a hour apart.

[@trueshot6969]

That looks truly fantastic. If you do not mind the asking, how much did he cost you for the day? In my area it is well over $2500 just to rent one of those for a day. If he cost you anything less than $7,000 for the day, I would say it was a steal. You definitely paid for his expertise and not the machine. Just be aware that will all of that new sunlight on those areas, it will come back quick fast and in a hurry. You probably do NOT want clear the mulch out he made. that will help to keep some of the stuff from growing back, will help revitalize the soil and help your vehicles to not sink when it is wet.

[@peterwalton1502]

What an Operator & what a machine 👏👏👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@patrickdeserisy2634]

Those Forestry munchers definitely make quick work out of doing some clearing out of the under growth

[@bendigr]

you need to get equipment to maintain your property. First item, a tractor. then start getting attachments. rotary cutter (bush hog), finish mower?, tiller? post hole auger? disc harrow? etc.

[@SowtheLand]

Trying

[@rowenadinsmore1]

Yes, that machine is amazing!

[@arwoods1237]

So happy & excited for you & your family. That machine was a great help & the young man doing the work seemed oh so pleasant. Blessings to all of you.

[@treefiddy2470]

I have the same predicament. I have like 1/3 of an acre to clear, been doing by hand but it's taking years and wear in my body. Decided I will pay someone to do it. These palmetto plants in florida are no joke.

[@karenlenoury4156]

Jasin, looking at the difference from the air is amazing. That machine did one heck of a job. Good job done all around.

[@salleecreekworkshop]

It took me a long time to realize that I can't do everything. I had a timber guy come out and I was going to do it all myself. They did in a couple of days what took me a year to do myself with minimal equipment.

[@sunshinestuart4847]

That was so fantastic! Work smarter not harder! So satisfying 👍

[@curtyung884]

I think you want to leave the chips even the bigger ones as you can seed and fertilizer and the chips help with water retention and seedling protection

[@denisewilson8367]

A forestry mulcher is a perfect machine to open an area and establish/reestablish the boudries. Or clear land to put in production as pasture or an area to build on. Great choice.

[@rawilson7768]

Wow that mulcher can really chew stuff!

[@guntaweiland3428]

Love that Lorraine gets a jogging trail❤

[@raysavary5906]

You can get a tracker for that it has one on the back

[@nancyseery2213]

WOW, it's like ten thousand angry beavers! What a time saver, worth every penny for saving you all of that time and energy. God bless and keep growing.

[@eddiejohnson3458]

i'm all about the right equipment for the job and even if you hired a guy every 5 years to do it this is without touching it yourself at all this also help with fire prevention

[@AZJH8374]

OMG!! IT'S PERFECT. JASON, YOU NEED TO FILM MORE PLEASE 🙏🏻 I'M LOVING THIS. ❤️ AND THE STEAK AT THE END!! LOVE ❤️ THIS!!!!!

[@frankorosz901]

You need to bring in a goat flock/herd to clear that out.

[@ABlueDahlia]

I didn't know those things existed either, but how amazing was that! Happy for you guys!

[@curtisep5885]

I REALLY. Wanted Justin to hire one of these! Gotta be the BEST TOOL EVER. LOVE WATCHING THIS🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@deloresochoa6235]

AMAZING!!!!! We couldn't stop watching!!! I think we replayed this video at least twenty times. Our great grandkids thought it was great. Thank you again for sharing your videos with all of us. GOD continue to bless you all, in Jesus, Amen!

[@jasonhatfield4747]

Good call hiring that out! Well worth it! Those machines are impressive (and kinda scary, haha). Now all you gotta do is keep it mowed!

[@Onix-xs6wq]

With all your hard work was wondering when you're bringing a Mulcher and here we go

[@curtyung884]

I've worked my career in the seed, fertilizer, and chemical industry. We just acquired some timberland and I just found out about a forestry mulcher

[@cekfraun]

That mulcher is amazing. He did a really good job, and it was fun to watch, especially with the various cameras -- one inside the cab, and the drone footage. Very cool! Your property looks great!

[@jbmckean]

do you own a tractor if so get a flail mower attachment and you could knock this kind of thing out yourself and keep it maintained yourself.if you dont own a tractor look into a machine called a Skag its also a flail mower but one you can walk behind it uses chains to keep the weeds and growth down ..its strong enough to smash up bricks and stones if not over sized.

[@cheriekreusel3756]

Wow! The property looks like a park now. Cool operator of the machine too. He really seemed to take care to give you what you asked for.

[@CliffsideStables]

BACKDRAGGING is the term used when he backs the machine up to regrind what was just cut. The more backdragging the smoother the outcome. Our experience has shown that it takes about two years for all the mulch that is left behind to deteriorate. We’ve had a forestry mulcher at our place several times and waiting for drier weather for a return visit. Tim in northern TN

[@sippinghotchocolate]

That machine is awesome!!!

[@PlowAndPantryHomestead]

That's amazing and fun to watch!

[@285113z]

Woah!!! This is just phenomenal, never seen anything like it before! Good luck Jason and Lorraine ~~

[@KarliBlock]

The meat in the shape of a steak looked yummy and made me smile!

[@sherrygtn63]

What a wise and spectacular move you just made !! That is a great job !!

[@rosewright9451]

Wow that's one big boys toy, it must of felt good to get all that shrubbery cut down so fast. All that land you have had cleared it's amazing.

[@azdave1422]

I was smiling through every grinding scene. Instant gratification. Nice.

[@belieftransformation]

Transformation of the land, for sure! Thanks for sharing!

[@paulabrown5685]

Just watching makes me excited for your family and how you are making your land beautiful and useful!

[@411poultry]

Now you need a Gator to drive around your trails!

[@barbaradeclerck7341]

Wow, I can’t believe the difference. Saving you so much time. That has now freed you up for your other projects👍 just amazing! Love it.🥳🎉🎉

[@rsoubiea]

wow that was amazing to watch. how satisfying.

[@moorsidegardener]

Honestly, I was surprised how exciting it was to watch this video, it must have been so much fun watching it happen before you eyes! I never knew those machines existed. Amazing progress and very cool.

[@SowtheLand]

It really is!

[@tammyt870]

Looks like you could have some of the trees cleared / pulled out of that little swimming hole in your creek and it would be a nice place to hang out on a hot day!

[@lonis7456]

This was amazing to watch. So glad you got help Jason!

[@jasonmabie1770]

Also, a suggestion if the creek is on your property, I would get either a bobcat or a small backhoe, and just dig out kind of a deep area and you get a lot of wildlife and fish and stuff back there or even a little swim hall with a small beach

[@freshstarts1618]

Yay! Sow the Land Sunday funday! I want that mulcher! I’m already wanting a bobcat… so… 😂. Oh Lorraine my heart jumped when you noticed you could jog there!! That would be me too!!

[@jessicamstorch]

Now that you had it forest mulched you NEED an ATV with a tow behind brush hog to maintain it. We have the Kunz Engineering rough cut 44” mower and it was a game changer for maintaining our property. Because a lot of your brush will come back

[@geenabeanscrochetandmore3533]

My dad hired a forestry mulcher to clear our land in Alabama. When I went to see it I could by believe it was all ours. It opened everything up so much. It was amazing.

[@gracewashburn8276]

That is awesome machine declare everything away from the fences, and make more space for you to use that is such a fantastic tool for the farm and it makes things so much easier❤❤

[@Mamasmovietime]

This is absolutely amazing. It looks like a new property and so much more can be accomplished now.

[@ronaldpiper4812]

That and a stump gringer and few other attachments. And that's a cool company. You made wife happy

[@margiemistretta8885]

I'm so happy that you got the job done The wood chips will help to keep weeds down and cover any mud that might occur

[@SuperMulletguy]

I had one of those do some clearing on our property-- those things are awesome and powerful!! Watch out! Flying pieces!

[@charlesebrown7808]

I hired someone to do clearing on my land when I first moved to the property that I am on now, with this type of machine. It's amazing, what it does.

[@406regen]

Wow that machine is awesome that paid for it self im glad i dont have to worry about all that on my fence line

[@BrendaJMay]

That Was Awesome To Watch ! Your Property Being Improved ,Step By Step,One Thing At A Time! And what a difference it makes for your future plans! 💯😊👍👍👍👍👍 So happy for Yall!🥰 Much♥️Love & God 🙏Bless🙏 Yall 😘

[@Grandma_NC]

That equipment is amazing. Glad you were able to hire him to come out and clear things for you. Now you can use your mower to keep things in check. Now to get that fence electrified. You may need to run another line near the bottom to keep those little piggies in. "I don't trust no pig"..... LOL Take care.

[@aslansdaughter4648]

Jason, Lorraine, and Penelope, that was amazing! What a timesaver for you! ❤ Very happy for you!

[@jeffreydamntreat2076]

Great path for you to get a UTV!!

[@clmierau]

I had no idea that there was such a machine ! I loved watching this!

[@colinstace1758]

I had a guy who did this for me once back in Australia. The job was not as big, but it's so much easier than by hand. He called it his "tree mower" 🙂👍

[@cathlyndeutsch9209]

That was SO interesting! I didn't even know a machine like that existed. Very likable driver too.

[@DHSFEMA]

That thing is amazing, I lived in NY and never had a need for it, moved to Florida and I had a lot on my property with Trees and being a city boy didn’t know about these things, well I had someone come and cleared out the whole thing in one day and now I have a lake view,

[@jamesscroggins3486]

That machine is awesome! Not only saving you valuable time, but your property is going to look so amazing.

Wow, I'm so impressed and I want a forestry mulcher, I don't have any use for one but I want one.😂😂🤣🤣 It was such a good idea to hire this, you have saved yourself hours, no weeks of work and by hand, I doubt if the job would be as good. Now you have a lot of time to do other important jobs. I really do enjoy your videos and watching your family tame this land. Best wishes for the future.

[@wildpuffalumps]

Wow talk about a time saver! That’s so cool! I had no idea that they made such things to clear brush like that! I know of brush hogs but those are usually behind the machine, this is very efficient! And time saving. 😊

[@SowtheLand]

huge time saver!

[@wildpuffalumps]

Y’all must be so happy to have that all knocked out in one afternoon! I’m just so amazed and happy for you!😊

Here in Australia our council sells off machinery like that. Interesting if you could afford it if they sell stuff like that in your local area.

Nice... You've been getting into hunting. Thinking maybe some deer food plots, blinds, and some treestands. I'm happy for you guys. Thanks for doing what y'all do appreciate it.

[@gregbraschke]

I bought a forestry mulcher when first moved to a farm, fence lines grown over. Thick brush, 12” diameter trees, prickly pear cactus, mulched it all. A year later was some of the best native grass on the place, did not pick up any debris caused by the mulcher. But that would be your call. Also bought a skid loader and other attachments, it’s unbelievable what you can do with one of those machines.

[@melissaandrews9587]

Yesss Jason , soooo worth it ❤, this guy has brought new opportunities to your land 😅, very much worth every dime you paid him 😅. Nice job !

[@thaliahelene]

Fantastic destruction machine, what a beast! Great idea to hire it. All the cleared paths… it’s almost like you need a horse on your horse farm to appreciate them, lol. I thought a stump grinder was high tech! Now I know what I’m bringing to a Mad Max post apocalypse.
