Alchemy Excavation is based in Springville, the small Perry Township community laid out in 1832 and named for Spring Creek. The country around here is rolling woods and pasture sitting on limestone, and like much of Lawrence County it has karst features such as sinkholes.
That ground is a good match for forestry mulching. The machine grinds brush and small trees above the surface and leaves the roots and soil where they are, so hillsides stay put and nothing gets pushed into a sinkhole. Because we work out of Springville, your property is a short drive for our crew, not a long haul.
Land around Springville tends to have:
Mulching handles all of it without opening up the ground.
Clear the understory and small trees while leaving the mature hardwoods standing.
ATV trails, hunting lanes, and access paths cut through timber and brush.
Cedar, brush, and saplings mulched so old fields can go back to grass.
Overgrown fence rows opened up for repairs or new fencing.
Our shop is in Springville, so getting to you is quick and scheduling is easier.
We know where sinkholes and rock show up and work around them.
You choose which trees stay, and we clear around them.
Everything is mulched on site, so there is nothing left to burn or haul.
Gravel lanes, culverts, ponds, and pads from the same local crew.
On rural acreage, mulching gives you:
It is one of the gentlest ways to take back overgrown land.
From our Springville shop we serve:
Rural acreage is our specialty.
Springville is unincorporated, so there is no town office. Here’s what to know.
County Jurisdiction – Permits for work around Springville go through Lawrence County, not a town government.
New Lanes & Driveways – If mulching opens a new lane onto a county road, the Lawrence County Highway Department (812-275-2644) handles driveway culverts on county roads.
Burning Brush – Burning tree and brush debris from clearing for a new home site, private road, or development needs IDEM approval first. Mulching in place avoids that step.
Sinkholes – We keep brush and debris out of sinkholes, since they can carry runoff straight to groundwater.
Yes. Our shop is in Springville, and we work across Lawrence, Monroe, Greene, and Owen counties.
Yes. Mulching works above ground, so we can clear brush near a sinkhole without digging into it or piling debris in it.
Very. Mulching opens shooting lanes, trails, and food plot edges without leaving brush piles that block access.
Late fall through winter. The leaves are down, the ground is firmer, and the work is done before spring growth starts.
