Mulching
Edko’s mulching services provide effective vegetation management while enhancing soil health and promoting sustainable plant communities. Our specialized mulching equipment mechanically processes woody vegetation into organic material that naturally suppresses regrowth while enriching the soil and reducing erosion.
Through selective mulching techniques, we target incompatible tree species and tall-growing shrubs while preserving desirable low-growth vegetation and pollinator-friendly plant communities. The resulting mulch layer creates a natural barrier that inhibits seed germination of problem species while allowing native grasses, wildflowers, and beneficial forbs to establish and thrive. This organic ground cover moderates soil temperature, retains moisture, and adds nutrients back into the ecosystem as it decomposes. In solar installations and utility corridors, our precision mulching creates a managed landscape that maintains required clearances while building a self-sustaining plant community. By returning organic matter to the site rather than removing it, mulching supports early successional habitat and creates diverse vegetation structures that benefit wildlife. The process eliminates the need for burning or hauling debris, reducing environmental impact while maintaining a clean, professional appearance that meets regulatory and operational requirements.

What if trees grew half as fast?
No, seriously.
