At Ash and Oak Arborists, we specialise in sustainable tree care and waste wood recycling across the Eastern Bay of Plenty. With our Jensen JT600 wood chipper paired to a Valtra tractor, we can process large volumes of slash, offcuts, and timber waste into high-quality wood chip that’s perfect for farm use.
Instead of leaving logging slash to rot or be burned, our team chips it on site and supplies it directly to Bay of Plenty farmers. One of the most popular uses for our wood chip is as calving pen bedding. Farmers appreciate how it helps keep pens clean, dry, and comfortable for newborn calves, while breaking down naturally into the soil once it’s spread as mulch.
We’re proud to offer a product that benefits both the environment and the local agricultural community. By turning waste wood into a valuable farm resource, we’re reducing landfill, lowering disposal costs, and supporting a circular economy in our region.
If you’re a farmer in the Eastern Bay of Plenty looking for reliable wood chip supply for your calving pens, contact Ash and Oak Arborists today — sustainable, local, and delivered where you need it.
