HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO HIRE A FORESTRY MULCHER FOR CLEARING LAND..WITH GREAT FOOTAGE! 

Thanks to all my loyal subscribers and fans of the channel and music..I appreciate ya'll...you are the motivation that keeps this channel rolling! Thanks so much!

I can't believe how many negative people are hating on the 3000 price the guy has 120 k asv 35k mulching head 15k trl 55k truck has to replace teeth 30 of them 130 per tooth every 250 300 hours uses 70 80 gallon of fuel per 8 10 hour day the maintenance costs is very high because the motor revving high all day long even 185 an hour is still a good deal all of you want every thing for free it costs big money to own and run these units stop your crying

Very nice to hear that someone besides myself thinks that farms can and should be beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing. And that machine is awesome. I want one for Christmas!

Hiring one of these guys to clear 2 acres of my 6. Learned real fast that I was not 18 anymore.

You now have new subscriber because your clear, concise and succinct! You didn’t waste my time, thank you Dr. Dave

From a blk guy in Detroit who has never ever even seen raw land in my life. I really enjoy these videos they inspire me to one day own some land of my own...P.S. the theme song is hilarious 🤣 😂

I don't see anything wrong with a man who takes pride in his land, the health of the ecosystem that he's able to positively affect, and also enjoys when not only himself, but others look onto his land and see beautiful natural native flowers and wildlife prospering. This is all in all a win for everybody. Win for the stoney Ridge farmer. Win for the company he hired. Win for the whole ecosystem in the area. Very cool project. I enjoyed it thrmoroughly. Your land looks beautiful and is such a pleasure to look at.

That! Was! Awesome! I never knew there was a machine like that. Tyvm for sharing. Glad I found your channel this passed Sunday. Yes, I watch quite a few videos each day, afternoon and night. ♡

I had a guy like this come out and work my property. Made for an awesome day with the kids watching him clear our atv trails. Now we have 7 miles of trails on our property

I agree with you 100% We just purchased our first 38ac in TN so I've been binge watching videos. I see so many "farms" that are muddy messes...I told the hubby, ours WILL NOT look like that. I want self sustainability but in a beautiful setting that I enjoy looking out on as I sit on the porch watching the sun set.

Wow, that was awesome! Thanks for sharing, and will look forward to the park-like results soon enough!

I love the fact you want to make a park like feel to your farm. So many farms don’t think about the look and enjoying what you see everyday. I can’t wait to see what you build in your farm

I spent a lot of time with a chainsaw and a bank axe doing that the hardway . Pay the man and go fishing instead.

That is sooooo freaking cool!!! I bet it smelled like heaven when those cedars mulched.

As a contractor, When you said "he can pee anywhere on the farm" We really appreciate that. Quite often we have a half a pot of coffee in us when we show up. And I like your plan using the dogwoods.

Love the tunes playing around minutes 6, 7, and 8. You have some tallent and passion there man. Great vid, love the machine and mulcher. Awesome to watch it work

Love the passion for making it look like a park. I feel the same way and I believe that it will add incredible value. Good luck.

A. I really liked the song about living in the country. Well done! I also agree about the dogwood and the clover and such! Love your vision for your farm.

Had I considered how much work it is to clear brush, brambles and vines I would've hired one of these guys. It didn't cross my mind until I was already on my second of 4 weekends and I only cleared a space about 30x200. Was so overgrown with privot and big thorny vines you couldn't crawl through it. $1500 per day would have been money well spent.

Seems like it’d be worth spending a day or 2 falling trees and let him grind the stump, freeing him up to clear more land. Very cool informative video! Thank you for sharing!

Gotta love watching these things tear some stuff up! Awesome power

Hey Josh, from one Josh to another, I've enjoyed all of your videos. My family and I just purchased 15 acres in Pittsboro, NC and this video encouraged me to hire someone to come in with a mulcher to clean up a lot of mess on our land. Thanks for all of the information.BTW, Hippy Town is awesome, we'll have to invite you down when were all settled in. :)

We had one of these things come in at camp. Incredible machine

Perfect! We just got a bid to do the same thing today down in Arkansas. Loved the music and showing us the before and after!!! Keep up the great videos. God bless!

I remember about 25 years ago back in 95 hired a guy with a small dozer to clear and pile 2 acres for me. He did an excellent job and I was happy. I burned brush for about 2 years after to get the land cleaned up and looking nice. I enjoyed all the burning but it was a lot of work and took a lot of my spare time. The ones who knew how much I paid for the clearing thought I paid double what it should have cost but not one offered to pay for the job. I am not complaining but I never tell anyone now what something costs. If you are satisfied with the job thats it. It aint no one else's money or bitness! I enjoyed the video!

I charge 3200 a day. I have a much larger machine and use 8 gallons if fuel per hour. I have to haul with day cab and 20 ton trailer. The biggest difference for me is the head has its own pump system and the machine has its own. You see in the video where as he raises the are or hits a tree how much momentum he loses and has to wait to build back up. Keep doing what your doing, hope to see you get a stand alone machine like a fecon or cmi

That area is going to look so awesome in the spring, in full bloom, with the creek and the green grass! I'm with you brother! I agree that the farm could look really pleasing to the eye. I spent a lot of time in Europe as a kid and saw all the manicured properties belonging to the various palaces and it is striking!

So glad you posted this vid. Never heard of a-forestry muncher.

That looks so much better. I wish we had a machine like that when I was a kid.

Love the music and setting of your farm love it thx for a beatiful thing

I really enjoy your music and your channel. I like that you show us things that we have never seen and how they work -- very interesting. God bless you and your family and keep up the great work!

Really looking nice. Damn, I want one of those. Thanks for sharing.

Great job brother.....I just hired a crew to do the same on my farm outside of Atlanta and it cost 27k,and it was cash well spent.

I appreciate your interest in the appearance of your property. Now to maintain it!

Great video Josh. I love the forestry mulching machine. You can't beat how much work that machine can do in a day. Love your RU-vid channel! Hope to see you soon.

We had this done two years ago with the blade type machine, and I would recommend it for an area that is going to remain woods, but definitely not recommend it for creating pasture. The blade type machines are much faster, but make much larger chips. We paid $75.00 per hour -- but he raised it to $125.00 for other people in the area. It cost us $1,200 for two days. You are 100% correct about cleaning out the woods. We are doing the same and planting prairie grass and wildflowers to restore the oak savanna that used to be here. Much of the understory around here is just invasive species anyways, and looks terrible.

That makes quick work out of them. I want to do the same thing at my place

Great video, man......and your music is perfect! That was some awesome footage of that killer machine too.....wouldn't want to get my finger in that mulcher LOL along with anything else....loved it all!

Awesome. Love the farm, playin with big toyz!

I recently found your videos, but I love what you have done and plan on doing at Stoney Ridge Farm! Keep up the great work.

Great idea! Super Video as well! I own land in Kershaw SC that I’m selling to Gold mine. I may use this gentleman on next piece of property, I’m doing 1031 rollover. Thanks Dr Dave

Enjoyed it very informative learn something what you paid for 2 days of work is very well worth it I would have paid that in a minute

Boy that was fascinating . I just cleaned up 20 acres with a tractor, 2 chainsaws and a DR chipper. He would have been worth every penny. Loved the video

Run little squirrels! Run away! Good job and good price.

I'm learning so much from your channel great job

Now that you've got several years behind the forestry mulched project. Why not show the views of the ground now? I'd love to see it.

Nice job! I love what you've done with the property and agree with your vision. I'm in need of the same thing (much smaller property).

Good results for what you wanted to do to your farm.

Josh that's a nice touch at the end of your video to reverse the progress on that tree stump grinding an interesting element of the vlog today! your making Stoney Ridge Farm a beautiful place. keep up the good work Josh.

Great job and I loved the song!!!

Thank you very much for this video. We had spent years for someone to do this sort of work. Forestry companies ignored us as best or were just plain rude. Danny (Creekside Mulching) just completed three days of clearing on our property. We cannot tell you how great it looks and so extremely happy with the results. Danny is a super nice guy and just a breath of fresh air to work with.

That is one amazing piece of equipment!

Finally found a video that addresses exactly what I'm looking to get done. Looking forward to more of your videos. Liked & Sub'd. Many thanks from Central Florida.

I’ve been watching forestry mulched videos since seeing this one as this guy here is a MONSTER compared to many others! 😎👍

Dadgum dadgum! I need one of those at my house for about a week!

I got 150 acres in NE Texas thick woods and brush. I found a guy asking for $150/hour. Done! Money well spent!

You're awesome man my new favorite farmer!

Great price. I was thinking that clearing that amount of area up was going to cost more than 5k.

That thing goes right to work ! Like a beaver on MT dew

Thanks for sharing this with us. I have found that it's better to fall the trees in the hey field and drag them to another spot to mulch rather than have all that debris over the field. Cheers

Thank god I got a nice one in my front yard

Great videos Josh! I watched a few of them before I realized where you are located. I live in Elkin! Keep up the good work!

Bro. You make good videos. Your a natural. Keep doing it. This machine is awesome.

Dang!!! Looks very nice!!! What a difference.

very interesting, i've never seen one of those before. good stuff...

I know this video was made awhile back, but I just happened to come across it. Very well done, and very informative. Timing is interesting on our end. We just bought 4+ Acres in rural Oklahoma. The land is totally raw, and has probably never seen any mechanized equipment on it. It is so overgrown with scruboaks and brambles and all sorts of junk. We won't be able to escape from crazy California for a couple more months, but I'm already getting bids on thinning out the entire property and putting in a house pad of about one acre. The prices that I'm being quoted are in line with what are still listed in this video. It seems like the range that I'm getting is between $1,000 and $1,500 per day depending on what equipment is used. One company is about $1,800 per day but that's two operators and two different pieces of equipment, which sounds intriguing. Most are saying my land is a full 2-day job. This was a great video!

👍Nice job! Stay safe out there! Quick story: a farmer in Indiana had a dream just like yourself and farmed for 30 years. got his farm looking the way he envisioned it and then one day he was mowing grass down by the pond and the tractor flipped over, killed him dead! His family said he had mowed that area 1000 times but it just took one crazy happening to kill the man 🙁 be safe out there!

I would recommend “HESCO” barriers around the farm. They have two footers that could line driveway with plants or flowers. Also, “Gibbons” (not sure if that is the right name) which would use rocks stacked up high inside a wired mesh type enclosure that you would fill with river stones. They look great and rustic with the rocks. Stone walls in certain areas would also look great! Nice videos! I always wondered how much that forestry mulching would cost!!!!!

Danny does great work, have had him up here

I love it! I need to find someone locally, Northeast Ohio, to do the same...

The poachers are going to love you for clearing that up for them. But it looks nice.

Gosh, that blue dually is beeeautiful. 😍😍😍

Those mulches are a great piece of equipment. Your land is looking awesome! Get some drone footage! All the best buddy

Love what you’re doing. I want to do the same thing.

That was 3 grand well spent, Your farm is Looking Good..

Great video. We are buying overgrown property about 2 hours East of this guy. Might be looking him up soon.

If you hadn't been so far away I would have got those cedars and left a short stump. Like working cedar.

Awesome!

Great job on the music too!!! Your farm is going to be awesome.

The price was spot on, very very reasonable.

I had this done some years ago to thwart cartel activity. It worked.

That one mad machine thanks for demo on it👍

Good job Thanks for price Would have liked to see him deal with tight spaces, steep slopes, and vines. Also hoped to see the before and after file down of stump.

Stoney ridge song got me ! 👍👍👍

I like the brush you got rid of. I cringed when I saw those beautiful cedars cut down though. I would have bush hogged around those bad boys.

That's good you're doing it for deer and such

I saw your CLEAN up video I want To see how beautiful you placed her down to be it's been a about 3 years and so I thought maybe you have a video of it now my brother bought 5 acres in Oregon and that this is something like what I'd like him to do with his property he has a a nice creek going by his property one part on partial the other part on the other side of the parcel so there's a Creek in between the two parcels thank you very much and I agree we can see the deer grazing have a beautiful day and thank you again

This gonna be good ! That cedar got to smell good. I could use that old boy on my place! Only have 9 acres, but clearing an acre like that would be good.

thx for saving the dogwood ...beautiful trees and something for the bee population which is dwindling to nothing :(

Park like look beautiful, well worth the cost

5:45 Sounds like my wife sleeping 💤🛏

I would pay $3k to get the job done to that standard and in that amount of time! Awesome!!

Brother, time is everything. I would have paid that to save that kind of time for sure. That piece of equipment is awesome. May have to look him up. My family is locating to the Boone area this coming year. Looking to hopefully get 10 acres.

Woooo! Stoney Ridge👍

New subscriber here, I'm in Piedmont NC too! Thanks for informative videos.

I just did a finish raking with my tractor of a customers land that had this done. He wanted all of the shredded stuff gone so he had I guess a power raker come on and clean it up and there was a huge pile below the pond. Today, I spent 5 hrs cleaning it better with my landscape rake. I have been looking for a video on how you clear that shredded stuff up.

You are doing a great job. Your neighbors will be griping come fire season and your place will have a buffer zone protecting you from all your lazy neighbors.

Implements of destruction. Cool. I guess it's am implement of construction, too. Constructing good soil for grass and clover.

That was cool!

I have been using danny for years he is awesome
