Clearing Land Around Athens
Athens is the Henderson County seat, about 35 miles southwest of Tyler where Hwy 31, US-175 and Hwy 19 meet, home of the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center and a courthouse square that still fills up on a Saturday. Lake Athens sits just east of town, Cedar Creek Reservoir is a short drive west, and the country in between is a mix of sandy post oak land, scattered pine, and pasture that goes to cedar and briar the minute somebody stops shredding it. Lake lots, retirement acreage and horse places make up most of what I clear around Athens. I open homesites and drives on tracts along Hwy 31 toward Murchison and down Hwy 19, underbrush lake lots on Lake Athens so the owner can see the water, mulch cedar and brush off pasture, clear fence lines on ranchettes toward Malakoff and Eustace, and take out the storm-damaged water oaks and dead pines that lean toward a roof. The ground here is sandier and more open than Smith County, which makes mulching quick and keeps the price per acre down. One operator, one machine, priced by the acre or the job after a walk with you.

Common Clearing Scenarios in Athens
The land clearing jobs I see most around here, and how I handle them.
Lake Athens lots grown shut
Lots on Lake Athens that sit as weekend places fill in with yaupon, sweetgum and briar between visits. I underbrush them to open the view and the walk to the water and keep the oaks for shade.
Cedar and briar eating pasture
Henderson County pasture goes to eastern red cedar and greenbriar fast. Mulching clears it in a pass, and because cedar does not resprout, the pasture stays open with regular shredding.
Horse places that need fence and a barn pad
Small horse properties are everywhere between Athens and Murchison. I clear the fence rows so they can be rebuilt, mulch the brush back off the pasture and open a pad for a barn or arena while keeping the shade trees.
