Land management for Hunterdon County acreage
Keeping acreage from closing in: brush hogging, forestry mowing and underbrush clearing.
Chapter 01
Ground that closes in if nothing is done
Acreage left alone does not stay open. Brush and saplings work back in at the edges every season, and a field or a line that was clear a few years ago is waist-high before anyone notices. Brush hogging is the standard answer: a heavy mower pulled behind a tractor, built to go through material a residential mower never could.

Forestry mowing
Some ground has gone past what a brush hog can handle. Forestry mowing runs heavier equipment through saplings and small trees a standard brush hog would stall on, and it is the step up when a property has been left unmanaged long enough that the growth reads as woods rather than brush.
Underbrush clearing
Fence lines, sight lines, and the wooded edge of a property all close in the same way if nothing pushes back against them. Underbrush clearing keeps that edge where it belongs, whether that means a fence line you can actually see or a driveway sightline that has not disappeared behind a few seasons of growth.
