Eco-Friendly Land Clearing & Vegetation Management
At Sturgeons Lawn & Tree Services, we offer professional, eco-friendly forestry mulching throughout Melbourne, Palm Bay, Grant-Valkaria, and Brevard County, FL.
Our specialized equipment clears thick brush, vines, and small trees while grinding everything into nutrient-rich mulch that stays on site to protect and enrich your soil. Whether you’re restoring acreage, creating buildable space, or simply regaining access to overgrown land, our mulching process provides a clean, sustainable solution.


What Is Forestry Mulching?
Forestry mulching is a single-step method for removing unwanted vegetation without hauling, burning, or disturbing topsoil. Using a high-powered rotary mulcher attached to our skid steer, we shred underbrush, saplings, and trees up to 8 inches thick—turning them into a protective layer of mulch that decomposes naturally.
Our Forestry Mulching Process
-
Site Assessment & Planning – We inspect your property, identify obstacles, and design an efficient clearing strategy that fits your goals—whether it’s creating trails, prepping for construction, or reclaiming overgrown land.
-
Marking Boundaries & Safety Zones – Before machines start, we flag property lines, utilities, and protected trees to ensure accuracy and safety.
-
Mulching & Grinding – Using state-of-the-art mulching heads, we grind vegetation flush with the ground, leaving behind a layer of shredded material that prevents regrowth and nourishes the soil.
-
Final Cleanup & Inspection – We make a final pass to level mulch and confirm that your land is clean, accessible, and ready for its next phase.
