Some people start a business to make a profit. We started ours to make a difference — and spend more time outdoors with our kids.
Otway Forestry Mulching was born from countless weekends exploring the Otways, surrounded by the smell of eucalyptus and the sound of the wind through the gums.
We saw the damage caused by burn-offs and bulldozers — blackened soil, erosion, native regrowth stunted. It didn't sit right. There had to be a smarter, cleaner way to restore land.
That's where forestry mulching came in. It processes suitable vegetation on site without creating burn piles; the number of passes and ground impact vary with site conditions.
Our work is about more than clearing land. It's about caring for it. We discuss what should be retained and what follow-up may be needed, rather than promising a particular soil or regrowth outcome.
As a family-run business, we understand the value of land and what it means to care for a property you love. Whether you're preparing for fire season, clearing overgrown paddocks, or restoring native bush, we're here to help.
