Wildwood Forge is a Christ-centered family business based in Brookport, in Massac County. We serve properties in and around Metropolis, Brookport, and Joppa, including the acreage between town centers.
Your project might start with an overgrown field, a fence line you can no longer reach, or a route through hunting ground. We help define the clearing work around that goal, with the equipment, communication, and attention your property deserves.

Talk with DerrickWhich parts of Massac County do you serve?
We serve Brookport, Metropolis, Joppa, and rural properties throughout Massac County. Wildwood Forge is based in Brookport. Share the property location and the area you want cleared when you request an estimate.
Can you clear a property outside the city limits?
Yes. Rural acreage, farms, recreational ground, and hunting properties are part of the work we do. The nearest town is helpful, but the actual property location and access are what we need to plan a visit.
What should I have ready for an estimate?
Start with the property address or nearest road, approximate acreage, and your main goal. Let us know about gates, narrow entrances, trees to keep, fencing, or areas that stay soft so we can discuss access and the clearing plan.
Do you offer selective clearing and trail access?
Yes. We can focus on brush, overgrown routes, fence rows, or field edges while identifying the features you want to protect. We walk the property together before work begins.
How are clearing projects priced?
We provide free on-site estimates. Area, vegetation density, access, terrain, and the requested finish all affect the scope. We discuss the work and price before scheduling the project.
