Any experience with Clear-Cut / Cutover land? (woodland forum at permies)
I've been seeing a lot of clear-cut/cutover land coming up for sale in the Canadian Maritime provinces. Have any of you got experience buying land like this? Hey people, I did a quick search and didn't see this exact question before. I've been seeing a lot of clear-cut/cutover land coming up for sale in the Canadian Maritime provinces. The land I have been seeing is anywhere from 10-25 acres going all the way to very large 400 acre properties.What I'm looking at hasn't been replanted in anyway and in some cases the stumps and treetops are still on the ground. Have any of you got experience buying land like this? Is it worth looking into? If you were to buy clear cut acreage, what would you do with the land?I have purchased cut over land, but never completely clear cut. I'm in the process of buying some now which will add 10 acres to our homestead. About 4 acres wer cut hard most remaining trees damaged skidder trails everywhere. Lots of work and boy am I exited!Voles mice squirrels rabbits will help to create living Swales bringing seeds mycelia droppings all along the brush piles which are on conjure. As stumps sprout you can develop a coppice pollarding plan. Don't be afraid of cut over land, but hopefully they left some big ones!
