I offer a eco friendly land clearing practice called “forestry mulching” that cleans out unwanted overgrown vegetation and trees up to 6 inches I use a track skid steer along with a drum style mulcher with 34 knives on it. It takes the overgrowth and trees down to the ground and mulches them up on site eliminating clean up and hauling off. Forestry mulching benefits include no hauling off site or burning piles it leaves a nice mulch finish on top that over time decays and puts nutrients back into the ground improving soil quality and eliminating erosion and also can do select mulching leaving bigger trees and just thinning out the smaller ones and brush I do fence lines, residential, back yard clean up, groves, right aways and just about anything I can get at and not to steep. Forestry mulching is a faster more efficient way of land clearing of small trees and overgrowth than traditional land clearing methods and doesn’t disturb the top soil. I’m just getting started in this business and looking for opportunities, as of right now doing it part time through winter and summer but hoping to expand and get into it full time and hope to build a satisfactory company and build good long term customer relationships. Will travel 25-30 miles from Smithland. Call/text 712-420-0562 leave voicemail if no answer. Thank You Very much

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won’t stay in place.

A window flower box should be deep enough that there’s room for a wide selection of plants and the required amount of soil and gravel. Standard flower boxes are 8 inches deep and 8 inches from front to back. Larger is better to increase the variety of plants in the box, but you could run into stability issues as it increases in weight.

Pavers are one of the most affordable methods of creating an elevated outdoor space. Gravel is an equally affordable alternative. If your budget permits, you can look into building a permeable driveway to ensure proper drainage. Grid pavers, pervious concrete, brick, and brick pavement are all effective materials. Permeable driveways are great options, especially if you live in an area with heavy rainstorms.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

You should exercise care when deciding how to landscape over a leach field for your septic system. You typically want lightweight materials that won’t damage the drain field’s perforated pipes. When adding plants to the area, select plants with shallow roots, such as grass or flower gardens. Trees with deep roots could damage the pipes in the field.
