Pasture that’s been out of production a few seasons and gone to cedar? Fence rows so thick with honeysuckle you can’t find the wire? Farm road that turns to ruts every wet spring? Those are the Harrisonville calls, and we handle all of them. Solid Ground runs a Takeuchi TL12-R2 track loader with an FAE forestry mulcher head that takes established cedar, honeysuckle, and hedge back to mulch without burn piles or bulldozed topsoil, and an 84-inch high-flow brush cutter for lighter growth and fence rows at 4–5 acres a day. Reclaimed pasture is left ready to re-seed.
On roads and driveways we rebuild from the base with grading and drainage underneath instead of dumping another load of gravel on top of the same problem, and we grade pads for barns, shops, and equipment storage so the ground drains right before anything goes up on it. We also cut in culverts and fix drainage on the creek-bottom ground that Cass County has plenty of.
Harrisonville and the country around it is working farm ground — big properties, open land, and jobs that take real equipment and a few days to do right. We’re based in Grain Valley and work down here regularly.
