You cut it. You pull it. You haul it away. Then new shoots and seedlings appear, and suddenly you are dealing with the same problem again.
Buckthorn can quickly reclaim cleared ground, block sunlight and crowd out native plants. Breaking that cycle takes more than removing what is growing today. It means clearing the buckthorn, establishing desirable vegetation and staying ahead of future regrowth.
Prairie Restorations can help you create a longer-term plan for your woodland, starting with professional removal.
Clearing buckthorn opens up your woodland, but it also leaves newly exposed ground where erosion and invasive regrowth can become a concern.

The mix helps protect exposed soil, occupy newly opened ground and give your woodland a stronger foundation for continued recovery.
Seed installation is not included. Continued buckthorn management may still be necessary.
Our Buckthorn Suppression Seed Mix contains 12 native grasses and sedges selected to establish living cover after buckthorn and other woody invasive plants are removed.
Together, these species help stabilize exposed soil, occupy newly opened ground and create desirable vegetation that can support continued management as the woodland recovers.
The grass-and-sedge composition also provides greater flexibility for targeted management of broadleaf regrowth when appropriate for the site.
