Scotch broom is thriving right now… and that means NOW is the time to tackle it.

If your property is starting to turn yellow with flowering Scotch broom, don’t wait. The ideal time to cut and mulch it is while it’s in bloom — before it drops seed and creates an even bigger problem next season.

Why now?
- Flowering = easy to identify and target and all of the plants energy is in developing flowers.
- Before seed production spreads thousands more plants
- Reduce future regrowth and reclaim usable land
- Improve fire safety, access, and curb appeal

We offer professional brush control, forestry mulching, and land clearing services to knock back overgrowth and help you take your property back.

Whether it’s a few problem areas or acres of brush, we’ve got the equipment to handle it.

Despite the common perception that all loggers cut trees, the actual felling, and bucking of trees were also specialized job positions done by fallers and buckers.

With the invention of motorized tools, vehicles, heavy machinery, and other powered tools, the profession and culture of the lumberjacks faded away. Nowadays, lumber workers are known simply as loggers.

The division of labor in lumber camps led to several specialized jobs on logging crews, such as whistle punk, chaser, and high climber.

The whistle punk’s job was to sound a whistle as a signal to the yarder operator controlling the movement of logs. He also had to act as a safety lookout. A good whistle punk had to be alert and think fast as others’ safety depended on him.

The high climber (also known as a tree topper) used iron climbing hooks and rope to ascend a tall tree in the landing area of the logging site, where he would chop off limbs as he climbed, chop off the top of the tree, and finally attach pulleys and rigging to the tree. After that, it could be used as a spar so logs could be skidded into the landing.

The choker setters attached steel cables (or chokers) to downed logs so they could be dragged into the landing by the yarder. The chasers removed the chokers once the logs were at the landing.

Choker setters and chasers were often entry-level positions on logging crews, with more experienced loggers seeking to move up to more skill-intensive positions such as yarder operator and high climber or supervisory positions such as hook tender.
