Land clearing in our own backyard
Pemberton isn’t a service area for us — it’s where we live and work. Pine Barrens Land & Forestry runs out of Pemberton, so when you call about a property here, you’re calling a neighbor who knows these roads, this soil, and this vegetation cold.
Pemberton Township spreads across a big piece of Burlington County, from the more settled areas near Pemberton Borough and Browns Mills out into deep Pinelands woods. Much of it sits within the Pinelands National Reserve, and the landscape shows it: pitch pine and scrub oak over sandy, acidic soil, greenbrier tangled through the understory, cedar in the low wet runs along the Rancocas Creek branches.
What clearing looks like in Pemberton
The jobs here run the full range. Wooded residential lots off the side roads that need opening up to build or breathe. Larger Pinelands parcels going back to brush. Farm ground — we know it personally — that needs field edges reclaimed or a back acreage brought back into use. Fence lines and property lines lost to scrub. Trails and hunting access cut through the woods.
Because so much of Pemberton is sandy Pinelands ground, our tracked loader is the right tool: low ground pressure for the soft spots, compact enough for tight lots, and powerful enough for a wall of scrub oak. We mulch the material in place — no burn piles, which matters in a township this wooded and fire-prone.
Pinelands permits — we know the drill
Here’s where being local really pays. A lot of Pemberton falls inside the Pinelands National Reserve, and larger clearing projects can require approval from the Pinelands Commission. Plenty of property owners don’t realize that until they’re partway in. We do this work here all the time, so we can help you figure out, before we start, whether your project needs sign-off — and clear within the rules where it does.

Why hire a Pemberton local
Anybody can haul a machine into town. Knowing the land is different. I farm here. I know which brush comes roaring back after a pass, which trees are worth keeping, how the sandy soil behaves under tracks after a wet stretch, and how to read a Pinelands lot before quoting it. When the work’s done, I’m still your neighbor — and I drive past these properties every week.
