Sustainable Land Services
We have partnered with Nash Brothers Land Services to provide the most sustainable land services in Texas that prioritize environmental preservation and responsible land management practices. We specialize in offering less wasteful forestry clearing practices that minimize the impact on local ecosystems. Our team is committed to utilizing all available resources, including wood, to benefit our planet and promote a circular economy.
Our approach to land clearing involves careful planning and execution to ensure the preservation of natural habitats and the protection of local wildlife. We utilize advanced equipment and techniques that minimize soil disturbance, prevent erosion, and reduce the risk of runoff and sedimentation.
Sustainable Land Services
HIGHEST AND BEST USE
In addition, we prioritize wood utilization by salvaging trees and other plant materials that would otherwise be discarded. By doing so, we help to reduce waste, maximize the value of these natural resources and maintain the rescued wood as carbon sinks. The material saved from our efforts is processed into Climate Smart Wood™ and Climate Smart Wood Products™.
We believe that our approach to sustainable land services can have a positive impact on the environment while also benefiting local communities. By prioritizing responsible land management practices and reducing waste, we aim to promote a healthier and more sustainable future for all.

Design and tree ReUse Consultation
Our team brings over 30 years of experience leading global product commercialization teams and producing 100% hardwood and softwood products from non-graded, untraditional lumber. We prioritize sustainability by utilizing lumber from rescued trees, which offers significant carbon savings compared to other construction materials. We refer to these projects as Climate Smart Projects™ as they focus on accelerating the sustainability goals of our clients.
With a certified project management professional on staff and extensive knowledge, we bridge the gap between desired outcomes and the material science of working with rescued urban wood. Our expertise in designing with rescued lumber is crucial as these trees are typically grown in less than ideal conditions, leading to material qualities that must be carefully considered.
