Taylor, along with his wife, Annie and their 4 children live in north-western Wisconsin just outside of Hayward. As far back as Taylor can trace his family, they have been working with horses and mules in the woods. It is a passion of Taylor's to keep up that tradition and through hard work, ingenuity and determination, he is able to sustain himself and his family by doing what he loves and is currently the last full-time "horse logger" in the state.
While times have changed, the efficiency of using animals in the forest has stayed the same. With the help of his horses, Taylor is able to safely and effectively cultivate a piece of property to ensure that it retains its magnificence for many generations to come!
Taylor receives many phone calls from foresters, businesses and private land owners who are looking for the special quality of work that Taylor can provide. With his low-impact techniques and minimal disturbance to the ground surrounding his work area, Taylor has the ability to be very selective in the amount of trees the property owner wishes to remove. Whether it is a single tree endangering a building, a selective cutting or clearing multiple acres for farm land, food plots or building sites, it is always done safely, beautifully and efficiently!
