Greetings. I have embarked on what will probably be a multi-year project of reclaiming my hedgerows. I am going along with a chainsaw taking what I can for firewood. Once the bigger stuff is gone, I plan to brushhog the smaller growth. The problem is the stuff in between, trees that are too big for the brushhog and too small for firewood, treetops, etc. I don"t want to bulldoze because of cost involved and also because I"ll still have the debris to dispose of. That leaves me with either burning the brush (once it dries) or renting a chipper. Burning is not ideal since I don"t want to start a brush fire. I don"t want to drag it out in the middle of the field and burn it since that"ll ruin my crop and pasture on that spot. Renting a chipper is probably the safest way, but there is the cost of the rental and fuel. I am looking for suggestions, ideas, etc., to see what other folks have done. Thanks in advance for any advice.
