Wetlands and riparian (where the water meets the land) habitat conservation

Are you a nonprofit riparian or conservation organization, government agency, hunt club, or private land owner?  Do you want to maintain habitats for pheasants, doves,, deer and various other wildlife?  Maintaining an animal habitat encompasses several different aspects: food, water, shelter, and space.

Food

Breaking Ground can remove unwanted underbrush and invasive species, such as buckthorn and multi-flora rose, in order to allow the rejuvenation of grasses and other food sources.

Water

Use Breaking Ground to restore water source access that has been blocked due to tree and under-story growth, allowing animals to access the water.

Shelter & Space

Breaking Ground forestry mulching equipment can remove invasive underbrush that prevents the growth of the grasses required by certain animals for shelter, breeding, escaping the summer heat, and protecting themselves from cold temperatures.

Invasive species control

Some common invasive plant species in New York State can be found here. These species invade a natural habitat, soak up a tremendous amount of ground water, some even release toxins and need to be removed to reestablish the native habitat or to preserve the water table.
