Landowners in Taylorville, Illinois, count on Norton Land Management to help them enhance, restore, and preserve their acreage. Our work supports a variety of goals—from wildlife habitat improvement to soil stabilization and long-term property value. Each project is built on firsthand field experience and an understanding of Illinois’ unique terrain.
We take pride in offering solutions that work with your land, not against it. Our services cover everything from forestry and food plot installation to erosion control, trail construction, and habitat development. Every plan is carefully crafted to deliver results that stand the test of time.
Transforming land into thriving wildlife habitat begins with a clear plan. Our wildlife management plans outline practical steps for improving biodiversity and strengthening game populations on your property.
We start with a detailed site assessment to identify habitat limitations and opportunities. From there, we design seasonal plans that guide you through improvements for deer, turkey, upland birds, and general wildlife health. With data-driven recommendations, your land becomes more functional, productive, and visually appealing.
Wooded acreage is one of your property’s greatest assets. Through our forestry and TSI services, we help landowners manage forest health, increase timber value, and enhance wildlife habitat at the same time.
Selective thinning, removal of invasive species, and sunlight optimization all contribute to stronger, more diverse forests. Our forestry practices support long-term sustainability while promoting the growth of high-quality hardwoods such as oak, walnut, and hickory.
Properly managed food plots can significantly improve wildlife movement and nutrition. Our team handles every phase of the process—from testing soil and selecting seed to preparing, planting, and maintaining the site.
Each food plot is customized for Taylorville’s soil and climate, ensuring consistent growth and attraction throughout the year. Well-planned plots contribute to healthier wildlife herds and more predictable hunting patterns across your land.
Overgrown brush and invasive vegetation can limit the productivity of any property. Our invasive species control programs reclaim overrun ground and restore the health of native plant communities.
We use targeted herbicide treatments, mechanical removal, and habitat rehabilitation to keep your land balanced and productive. Once invasive plants are removed, native vegetation can return, benefiting both soil health and wildlife diversity.
When managed responsibly, controlled fire is one of the most effective land restoration tools available. Our prescribed burning services revitalize soil, reduce invasive growth, and promote native plant regeneration across Christian County and surrounding areas.
Each burn is conducted under strict safety guidelines with attention to wind, weather, and fuel conditions. The end result is cleaner ground, renewed vegetation, and a healthier habitat for both game species and native flora.
Good access makes managing your property easier and safer. We design and build trail systems and access roads that allow for year-round use without causing erosion or surface damage.
Our grading and drainage methods create stable, long-lasting routes for equipment, vehicles, and recreational use. Whether you need improved access to food plots, stands, or pastures, we’ll ensure your trails enhance both usability and appearance.
Maintaining clear fence lines protects your investment and keeps your property functional. Our fence line clearing services remove unwanted growth, reduce maintenance costs, and improve visibility.
We handle all aspects of the process, from heavy brush cutting to debris removal. Clean boundaries not only look better—they also improve accessibility and reduce potential hazards.
Erosion and nutrient loss threaten the health of every property over time. Our soil and water conservation strategies address these issues head-on by improving stability and resource retention.
We incorporate buffer strips, drainage improvements, and cover crops to protect soil integrity and encourage strong plant growth. With our guidance, your land remains productive, resilient, and environmentally sound.
Open land requires consistent attention to remain useful and appealing. Our pasture and field management services restore underperforming acreage through mowing, reseeding, and vegetation control.
Whether you use your fields for livestock, hay, or habitat, we help you create stronger forage and maintain balanced plant diversity. These practices improve productivity while supporting a healthy ecosystem.
