Selective Thinning for Acreage Fuel Reduction.
This Homeowner in Shingle Springs wanted her 1.5 acre property cleared of the dense brush posing a wildfire fuel risk. We used a Hand Crew per her request to clear out Chamise, Scotch Broom and Poison Oak. Electing to leave native Oak Saplings, Manzanita, and Toyon Bushes speckled throughout the property. For Reference a job like this with a hand crew costs about $10,000

Another Progress photo, much of the brush has already been cleared at this point.
A photo after we're done, we've left the Manzanita, Oaks and Toyon but created a much larger Defensible Space around the home
