The rig could not make the turn onto a recent customer's road, so Scott parked it a distance away and drove the forestry mulcher to the property; that customer said the land was cleared of invasive weeds and brush and is now walkable. Hudson Valley Forestry says on its website that it is not a logger or a tree service, and that it brings in specialized equipment to reclaim land so the landowner can maintain it. Its website lists Torrington, New Hartford, Harwinton, Burlington, Litchfield, Canton, Goshen, Norfolk and other towns as its service area. A recent customer said overgrown brush and thickets were turned into usable land in a few hours, with the mulching head grinding everything down where it stood. On a new 3-acre property, a recent customer said Scott cleared brambles, dead trees and an overgrown meadow in days. A recent customer said Scott forest-mulched their back woods. Goats are part of the work too: a recent customer rented 30 goats from HVF for 24 hours to eat down a large area of thorny, weedy meadow and said the electric fence worked. A 2026 customer said a steep hillside was cleared of thick brush and small saplings in a few hours. In a 2025 review, a customer said HVF cut trails through their property, and the machine took down mature standing trees. A 2025 customer said Scott cleared close to an acre of an overgrown tree grove in half a day while preserving healthy trees. In 2025, a customer said stumps were removed, trees were stacked for firewood, and smaller trees and debris were mulched in place. A 2025 customer said Scott cleared almost ten acres of invasive species and shares photos regularly. A 2025 customer who gave four stars said there was an unexpected issue on the job, and that things were resolved as best they could be.
Scott was responsive and professional. He went above and beyond from the start. His rig and machinery could not make the turn onto my road, so he parked a distance away and drove his forestry mulcher to my property! The land was cleared of all the invasive weeds and brush and is now walkable and ready for Planting in the spring. I’m so happy with his services.
I don’t often write google reviews,but I had to make an exception for Scott at Hudson Valley Forestry! He not only made fast work on our mulching job, he was on time and a pleasure to do business with.We have a large piece of property and we will have him back to do additional work in the near future. Thanks Scott!
Outstanding work! My property was completely overgrown with brush and thickets, and they completely transformed it into usable land in just a few hours. The mulching head ground everything down perfectly right where it stood, leaving behind a clean, natural finish. Highly recommend for anyone looking to reclaim their land!"
Scott has been an excellent partner in helping us reshape the land of our new 3 acre property. He did an amazing job of clearing up years of neglect in days… from brambles to dead trees to an overgrown meadow… and was a pleasure to work with in the process. He took the time to understand the land itself and what we were looking for, and provided great advice along the way. Can’t recommend enough for residential land clearing
I rented 30 goats from HVF for 24 hours. The whole experience was fantastic. I guess I should start with: they did a great job eating a pretty large area of thorny and weedy meadow items. The goatherd was great and really communicative and the electric fence worked like a charm. All I had to do was make sure their trough had water the next morning! I would do this again. Aesthetically, and for the soul, having goats around is bliss-inducing. <3
