Cass County sits just south of Jackson County and has some of the most genuinely rural agricultural land in the greater Kansas City area. Large farms, wide open fields, working pastures, and properties where the jobs tend to be real ones — not quarter-acre suburban lots but multi-acre clearing projects, long farm roads, and land that needs serious equipment to manage properly.
Solid Ground is based in Grain Valley — right on the Jackson-Cass County line — which makes us one of the closest operators to northern Cass County and Harrisonville. We work down here regularly and understand the terrain: flat to gently rolling farm ground, creek drainages, and fence rows that haven’t been touched in years and are thick with invasive honeysuckle, Eastern red cedar, and hedge trees.
From Harrisonville to Raymore to Pleasant Hill — we serve the full county. Call Hap at 816-316-0261 for a free consultation on your Cass County property.

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 · $1,600–$2,200/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 · $1,200–$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 · $1,600–$2,200/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 $1,200 to $2,000 per day covering 4–5 acres. Forestry mulching runs $1,600 to $2,200 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.
