Bush Hogging & Field Mowing

When grass has gone past what a mower will touch and the briars have moved in, a bush hog is the answer. We cut fields, pastures, lots and easements across New Kent County and greater Richmond.

Bush hogging clearing tall grass and brush in a field in Central Virginia.

A bush hog is a heavy rotary cutter pulled behind a tractor, built for material a finish mower would choke on: tall grass, briars, brush and saplings up to a couple of inches thick. It's the most cost-effective way to get an overgrown acre back under control.

Left alone, an open field in Virginia becomes a thicket in about three years. Regular cutting, once or twice a season is usually enough, keeps pasture as pasture, keeps ticks and snakes down near the house, reduces fire load through a dry summer, and stops the treeline creeping in from the edges.

We cut one-off reclamations and we cut on a schedule. If you own acreage you don't live on, a standing seasonal arrangement is usually cheaper than calling us when it's got away from you.

  • Priced by the acre

    Straightforward per-acre pricing, so a large field costs what a large field should rather than an hourly surprise.

  • Keeps land as land

    Seasonal cutting stops pasture turning into scrub and keeps the treeline from advancing on the open ground.

  • Safer around the house

    Cut ground means fewer ticks and snakes near where people actually walk, and less fuel load in a dry summer.

How it works

What we cut

If it's overgrown and you can get a tractor to it, it's probably a bush hog job.

  1. Pastures and hay fields

    Knocking back weeds and woody growth to keep grazing and hay ground productive, typically once or twice through the season.

  2. Vacant and residential lots

    Getting an overgrown lot back into compliance and back to something you can walk across, then keeping it there.

  3. Fence lines and easements

    Clearing along fencing, property lines and utility easements where brush builds up fastest and matters most.

  4. Trails and access lanes

    Keeping riding trails, farm lanes and access routes open through the growing season.
