Land Clearing in Mims, FL

Mims is rural north Brevard, sitting just south of the Volusia border. Historically a citrus-growing area, Mims is now a mix of working agricultural land, residential acreage, and steady growth as people who want to build on rural Florida property find affordable land here. Our work in Mims is mostly large-parcel clearing for owner-builders, ongoing pasture and acreage maintenance, and reclamation of former citrus groves that have been left to grow back.

The St. Johns River floodplain shapes the western edge of Mims. Anything close to the river or its associated swamps and wetlands triggers state-level rules. We respect buffers and won’t enter without confirmation.

What land clearing in Mims looks like

Mims parcels are typically large: five acres up to 40 or more is common. Sandy flatwoods soil, palmetto cover, scattered slash pine and live oak, with occasional patches of older citrus or pine plantation. Forestry mulching is the right tool for most of these properties; brush mowing handles ongoing maintenance.

Many Mims parcels were former citrus groves abandoned during the 1980s-90s freeze cycles. These have grown back into thick scrub and small-tree cover, and reclamation work to bring them back into pasture or build-ready condition is one of the most common job types here.

The Aurantia area and the unincorporated zone north toward Scottsmoor and the Volusia border have the most undeveloped acreage. Owner-builder lot clearing on five to 10 acre parcels is a steady stream of work.

When Mims property owners call us

Common Mims jobs:

• Forestry mulching for owner-builders. The most common job. Five to 20 acres at a time, prepping a build envelope and mulching the rest.
• Reclamation of former citrus groves. Multi-acre clearing to bring overgrown grove land back into productive use or build-ready condition.
• Pasture mowing and maintenance. Working ranches and small cattle operations needing twice-yearly maintenance.
• Large-acreage land clearing. Reset jobs for properties that have been neglected for years.
• Storm cleanup after named hurricanes. Mims sees less direct wind impact than the coast but large wooded parcels take significant damage.
• Fence line clearing on long rural runs. Often per-foot pricing.
