Overgrown pasture, fence rows gone to honeysuckle and cedar, a farm road that washes out every spring, a pad that needs grading before the barn goes up — that’s the work we do across Cass County. Solid Ground runs a Takeuchi TL12-R2 track loader with an FAE forestry mulcher head for established woody growth and an 84-inch high-flow brush cutter for lighter brush and seasonal maintenance at 4–5 acres a day, plus the grading and excavation equipment for roads, building pads, culverts, and drainage. Multi-acre, multi-day jobs are what we’re set up for.
We tell you which tool the ground actually needs. Light grass and briars get the brush cutter; cedar, hedge, and years of honeysuckle get the mulcher, which leaves the pasture clean and ready to re-seed with no burn piles and no topsoil scraped off.
Cass County is some of the most rural agricultural land in the Kansas City area — flat to rolling farm ground, creek drainages, big properties. We’re based in Grain Valley, right at the Jackson–Cass line, which makes us one of the closest operators to Raymore, Pleasant Hill, Harrisonville, and the northern half of the county, and we work the whole county regularly.

The most thorough clearing method for Cass County’s established cedar, honeysuckle, and brushy fence rows. Our Takeuchi TL12-R2 with FAE mulcher head handles dense growth on large rural properties without the burn piles, hauling, or soil disturbance of traditional clearing methods.
~1 acre/day · $1,800–$2,400/day
Fast, cost-effective clearing for overgrown pastures and fields across Cass County. At 4–5 acres per day, brush hogging is the right choice for lighter growth and seasonal maintenance — keeping fields productive and fence lines clear without the cost of full forestry mulching.
4–5 acres/day · $1,600–$2,000/day
Cass County agricultural land that’s been out of production — or just neglected for a few seasons — can be reclaimed cleanly with forestry mulching. Removes the invasive growth without soil disturbance, leaving the ground ready to re-seed and return to productive pasture.
~1 acre/day · $1,800–$2,400/day
Rural farm roads and long driveways across Cass County take a beating in wet Missouri springs. We build and repair gravel roads with proper grading and drainage — addressing the actual cause of washouts rather than just topping up the gravel year after year.

We serve all of Cass County — from Raymore and Belton in the north to Harrisonville, Pleasant Hill, Garden City, and the more rural southern communities. We’re based in Grain Valley right on the county line, so northern Cass County is especially quick for us to reach.
It depends on what’s there. For lighter grass and brush growth, brush hogging is fast and cost-effective. For established cedar, honeysuckle, and hedge trees, forestry mulching is the right tool — it grinds everything to ground level without soil disturbance, leaving the land ready to re-seed. Call and describe what you’re dealing with and we’ll tell you which approach makes sense.
Brush hogging runs $1,600 to $2,000 per day covering 4–5 acres. Forestry mulching runs $1,800 to $2,400 per day at about 1 acre per day. Large Cass County properties often run multiple days. We give you an honest estimate based on what’s actually on your property — not a number we can’t back up.
Call or text Hap at 816-316-0261. For larger rural jobs we typically schedule a free site visit — walking the property gives us the best read on what it needs. No obligation, no pressure.
