Forestwerx, your homegrown Fire Mitigation, Forestry & Trail Building experts

Howdy Friends and Neighbors!
We want to share some updates on your homegrown Fire Mitigation, Forestry & Trail Building experts!

*Our team of current and former mountain local Firefighter/Sawyers/ Mitigation Experts returned last year. We also welcomed some new faces.

*We have been incredibly busy, having treated over 100 acres of land by mid-2025, almost all of it being in Evergreen! Our projects included both hand and mechanical forestry treatments on project sizes ranging from 2-40 acres. Several of our projects were large scale pine beetle sanitation & reclamation, treating 100+ large infested ponderosa at a time. (We are proud to see so many friends, neighbors, and clients aggressively fighting our extreme pine beetle -> Fire risk problem!)

* Trailbuilding season! Several of our past projects included residential trail building and maintenance as a tangent to their fire mitigation efforts. One of them even included trail construction as a pre-built fire perimeter!

*We continued to add to our fleet of innovative equipment, including our FÖRST tracked chipper that seems to draw a crowd everywhere we take it! In addition, our 2nd forestry mulcher arrived, and we were excited to get it out into the field to serve you. We have also been proud to share some of our equipment to support fire mitigation capacity with multiple fire departments in the area.

* Our website www.forestwerx.com got a great facelift after some feedback from local customers that were having trouble accessing it! If you haven’t visited in a while, come check it out!

**Forestwerx became the very proud sponsor of Jeffco SLASH! You will see Forestwerx logos at all Jeffco Slash Sites/Website and even on your SLASH receipts! We urge all Jeffco Residents to utilize this incredible resource and are thrilled to support the efforts of the county and JCD to keep this program viable.

*** We have already starting to book for spring 2026 projects, however we may have capacity to take earlier projects depending on slope, aspect and size. If you have a Medium to large scale Forestry, Fire Mitigation or Trail building project on your list, we urge you to reach out proactively.

We wanted to wrap up by saying thank you so much to all of our local supporters. From our clients to our sideline cheerleaders and families, we most definitely could not do this without you! We know that you have many choices when it comes to fire mitigation and forestry, especially with so many new entries to the market from both near and far; we always feel so incredibly honored when you choose to support FORESTWERX!

We’re shouting our gratitude from the rooftops for our incredible Forestwerx core team!

Eric, Harrison, Dale, Taylor, Justin, and Keenan absolutely crushed it in 2025. Together, this locally grown crew brings 60+ years of combined experience across wildland fire, urban interface fire, and forestry—representing six mountain fire districts, BLM, USFS, NPS, and multiple county agencies.

They hold some of the highest-level certifications in the field as sawyers, machine operators, and mitigation specialists, along with advanced degrees ranging from natural resource management to landscape architecture.

There’s truly no team like this one in the Front Range. From wildfire modeling and project assessment to expert timber felling and elite mechanical forestry work—this is the A-Team of fire mitigation and forestry. We’re incredibly proud and endlessly grateful. Here’s to an amazing and an even stronger 2026 together!

We also want to give a huge shoutout to our amazing partners:
Wolf Tree, Mountain Family Tree, Jefferson Conservation District, EFR Wildland Fire Division, The Laverty Group, Hardline Equipment, and so many others who supported and collaborated with us this year.

Something I never expected when we started this company in back in 2020, is the bittersweet feeling that comes with wrapping up a big project. We become attached to the land we work with, and the people who call it home. Saying goodbye can feel like saying goodbye to an old friend.

This was a 17 acre fire mitigation and forest health project in Conifer. This project presented many logistical, ecological, and terrain challenges, but it was exceptionally beautiful and delicate. Our team truly knocked it out of the park, attaining a final product that blew our certifying forester away, and made our landowner clients proud. All while finishing several weeks ahead of schedule. So again we say goodbye old friend, It is time to move onto the next!

A huge thank you to our partner landowners in Kings Valley that trusted us with their beloved land, and helped make this project such an exceptional success!
