Wilderness Land Clearing & Mulching
About Wilderness Land Clearing & Mulching
Wilderness Land Clearing & Mulching is a tree service and land clearing company based in Fort Ripley, Minnesota, in Cass County. Owner Joe Nelson founded it in 2011 and has more than 30 years in the tree industry. The company does tree removal, tree trimming, land clearing, and emergency removal of storm-damaged trees. Its main work is forestry mulching. Equipment grinds brush, saplings, and unwanted growth where it stands, and the mulch stays on the ground instead of being hauled off. The work can be selective, so the company can leave the trees and natural features a landowner wants to keep, "preserving the trees and natural features they want to keep." For hard-to-reach trees, it uses a Tree-MEK system that keeps operators on the ground. Joe Nelson also works directly with insurance companies to spare clients bureaucratic headaches. The service area covers the Brainerd Lakes Area and the Twin Cities Metro, along with many towns across central Minnesota. It offers free estimates. Its work includes hunting land, trails, cabin lots, and buckthorn control, though mulching alone may not stop buckthorn from coming back, since roots can resprout. It suits a landowner with overgrown wooded acreage who wants brush cleared with less ground disturbance and the mulch left in place, and who does not need a buyer for standing timber.
