Our Services
Forestry Planning & MFTIP Consulting
We provide support for landowners looking to manage forests responsibly and take advantage of the Managed Forest Tax Incentive Program (MFTIP). Services include forest inventories, long-term management planning, and guidance tailored to your property’s goals. Whether you’re improving a woodlot, enhancing biodiversity, or pursuing tax savings, we ensure your plan meets both program requirements and the unique needs of your land.
Field Operations & Land Management
Lot and land clearing, brushing, and vegetation control services that support property access, infrastructure, and future planning. From opening up space for trails or planting, to managing overgrowth or invasive shrubs, all work is completed efficiently and with care for the surrounding landscape.
Tree Work & Risk Evaluation
Tree removals, pruning, and risk assessments are completed with a focus on safety, structure, and long-term tree health. Whether dealing with hazard trees, overgrown canopies, or trees in decline, work is carried out using proper equipment and techniques. Tree risk assessments are also available for formal documentation, permitting, or insurance purposes.
Trail Building and Maintenance
Design, layout, and construction of natural surface trails that balance durability, flow, and low environmental impact. We also provide maintenance services to keep trails safe and accessible over time. Whether it’s for recreation, access, or woodland management, trails are built to last and suited to the natural terrain.
Tree Planting and Reforestation
Planting services designed to meet restoration, screening, or long-term forest cover goals. We help you choose the right species for your site and layout trees for proper spacing and future growth. Whether reforesting an open area or enhancing an existing canopy, planting is done with an eye on both success and sustainability.
Chainsaw Training and Safety
Professional chainsaw safety training for individuals, organizations, and crews. Our courses focus on safe operation, field maintenance, and hands-on techniques that reflect real-world tasks. Training is tailored to skill level and site needs, making it ideal for landowners, trail crews, and work teams alike.
Shoreline Restoration and Management
Targeted shoreline work to reduce erosion, manage vegetation, and restore natural function. This includes invasive species removal, debris cleanups, and planting along the water’s edge. All services are designed to work within site conditions and follow current best practices for shoreline health.
