Madison County, TN Farm Reclaim with

Tree Transplanting

The Turner project was an old cattle farm that had been left dormant for 15+ years.  The entire front property line had grown up in unwanted vegetation and undesirable tree species. 

• The entire frontage of the property along US Highway 70 East was cleared and new fencing and gates installed. 

• We installed a new entrance on the west side of the property and installed a culvert and rocked the drive over the existing creek. 

• We transplanted oaks that had grown up into strategic spots on the farm with the tree spade and this saved the owner roughly $3000-$4000 if the trees had been purchased from a nursery.  These oaks were transplanted, limbed, and fertilized and were about 12 feet tall each.  They will provide a great landscape for this farm in the future. 

• We cleaned up and eliminated undesirable fence rows and built a road through the woods with the excavator and dozer to connect the barn to the back hay fields.

• We eliminated old cattle ponds that were very shallow and were a breeding ground for mosquitoes. 

• We planted persimmon trees and other fruit trees on the backside of the property  along with deer stands for hunting. 

  The farm is ready for livestock/horses or for hay production.
