Reclaiming Overgrown Pasture with Forestry Mulching
Transforming Land into a Bird Sanctuary in North Georgia
When a local Parks & Recreation needed help reclaiming an overgrown pasture for a future bird sanctuary, they called Southern Brush Landworks & Construction.
What started as thick underbrush, invasive growth, and years of unmanaged pasture quickly became a clean, revitalized landscape — ready to support native wildlife.
And the solution? Forestry mulching.
What Is Forestry Mulching?
Forestry mulching is a land clearing method that uses specialized equipment to grind unwanted vegetation, brush, and small trees into nutrient-rich mulch… all in one efficient process.
Unlike traditional land clearing methods that require hauling debris away or burning piles, forestry mulching:
Grinds material directly back into the soil
Reduces erosion
Adds organic matter and nutrients
Minimizes ground disturbance
Preserves healthy, mature trees
For this Parks & Rec project, it was the perfect solution.
Reclaiming an Overgrown Pasture
This particular property had become heavily overgrown with:
Thick underbrush
Invasive plant species
Small volunteer trees
Dense vegetation choking out native growth
The goal wasn’t to clear-cut the land — it was to restore it.
Using forestry mulching, Southern Brush was able to:
✔ Remove invasive species
✔ Open the land back up to sunlight
✔ Improve soil health
✔ Create a sustainable foundation for native grasses and bird habitat
Instead of stripping the land bare, we improved it.

Why Forestry Mulching Is Ideal for Wildlife Habitat Restoration
When creating a bird sanctuary, soil health and ecosystem balance matter.
Forestry mulching is especially effective for:
Pasture reclamation
Wildlife habitat preparation
Invasive species control
Selective land clearing
Erosion control on sloped property
Large acreage clean-up
By leaving behind natural mulch, the soil retains moisture and nutrients — encouraging healthy regrowth that supports birds and other wildlife.
This approach protects the land while preparing it for long-term use.
Forestry Mulching vs. Traditional Land Clearing
Traditional land clearing methods can feel aggressive.
Bulldozers scraping the earth.
Burn piles stacked high.
Debris hauled away.
Soil left exposed and vulnerable to erosion.
While those methods have their place, they often leave land stripped and disrupted — especially when the goal is restoration, not destruction.
Forestry mulching offers a different approach.
Instead of tearing the land apart, it works with it.
✔ Vegetation is ground in place — returning nutrients to the soil
✔ Erosion is reduced with a protective mulch layer
✔ Healthy trees can remain untouched
✔ The land is cleared without being scarred
For municipalities, private landowners, farms, and developers across North Georgia, forestry mulching is one of the most sustainable and efficient land management solutions available.
And when restoration is the goal — like this Parks & Recreation project reclaiming pasture for a future bird sanctuary — the results speak for themselves.
The Result: Reclaimed, Restored, Ready!
