Get your food plots started the right way.
Simply throwing seed on rough ground rarely produces the kind of food plot you’re hoping for. Uneven surfaces, heavy thatch, poor drainage, and compacted soil can all work against you. The result is thin stands, bare patches, and plots that struggle to compete with existing vegetation.
Investing in proper preparation gives your seed mix a healthier start and can make your food plots more consistent and attractive over time.
We start by walking your planned plot locations and talking through your goals. Then Cournaya’s Land Enhancement helps clear, grade, and prepare the soil using equipment suited to the site. The aim is a reasonably smooth, well-drained plot that’s ready for your chosen seed mix.
We adjust the level of preparation to your budget and what will make the most difference for your specific property.
Cournaya’s Land Enhancement provides services across much of Michigan’s Thumb and surrounding areas. We regularly work throughout Tuscola, Sanilac, Lapeer, and St. Clair counties and in many of the communities in and around those counties.
We stand behind the work we do. Our guarantee is simple: we will show up when we say we will, do the work we agreed to, and walk the job with you before we leave. If something reasonable needs to be addressed related to the work we just completed, we will talk it through and make a plan to make it right.
Outdoor work is always at the mercy of weather and existing site conditions, but we do not disappear when the equipment leaves. If you have concerns about the workmanship on a recent project, contact us. We will review the site, explain what we are seeing, and discuss any adjustments that may be appropriate based on the original scope of work.
If you want food plots that actually take off instead of struggling year after year, better preparation is a great place to start. Contact Cournaya’s Land Enhancement, and we’ll walk your ground, discuss your goals, and put together a practical plan to get your plots ready.
Every job starts with a conversation. You tell us what is going wrong, how you use the property, and what you would like to change. We ask questions, look at any photos you have, and when needed schedule a visit so we can see the ground in person.
On site, we walk the area with you, point out problem spots, and talk through options. We explain what we recommend, why we recommend it, and how it will be done so you understand the plan before any equipment moves.
On delivery day, we bring the material with trucks sized for your property and access. We place piles where you can easily reach them with equipment or wheelbarrows, or where we will be grading if we are handling the spreading.
After delivery, we are available to answer questions about how to spread, compact, or maintain the material. If you decide you would like help with grading or additional work after seeing it on site, we can talk about next steps and schedule follow-up services.
We can offer practical feedback based on access, slope, drainage, and how equipment can reach the area. Final placement is up to you, but we’ll share what we see from a ground and equipment standpoint so you can make more informed choices.
Our main focus is on clearing, grading, and soil preparation. In some cases we may be able to assist with seeding if discussed ahead of time. If you prefer to seed yourself, we’ll leave the plots in a condition that makes planting much easier.
It’s usually best to prepare plots ahead of your ideal planting window so the soil can settle a bit and you can address any new weeds that appear. The timing depends on what you plan to plant. We’ll talk through timing and help you schedule prep work so it lines up with your planting plans.
Cournaya’s Land Enhancement is a family-run company that treats every property like our own. We focus on honest recommendations, practical solutions, and work that is built to handle real-world use, not just look good for a day. When you call us, you talk directly with the people who will be on your property, running the equipment and standing behind the results.
Our team is used to working on driveways, yards, fields, and rural properties across the area. We understand soft ground, standing water, and washed-out drives because we deal with them every season. That experience shows up in the way we plan each job and the small details that help your project hold up over time.
