Lewisburg is the Greenbrier County seat in the Greenbrier River valley of southeastern West Virginia, where land clearing demand reflects the county's distinctive character as a mountain resort and agricultural community anchored by The Greenbrier resort, with clearing projects spanning estate and resort property management, residential development on valley and hillside terrain, and agricultural land transitions in the Greenbrier River watershed. Greenbrier County's terrain combines the relatively flat Greenbrier River bottomland with the steep Allegheny Mountain ridges that rise dramatically from the valley, creating clearing conditions that range from accessible river valley sites to extreme mountain terrain in the county's eastern sections near the Virginia border. WV DEP NPDES stormwater permit coverage is required for projects disturbing more than one acre in Greenbrier County.

The Greenbrier River corridor has Japanese Knotweed in some streamside locations, and the county's agricultural character means fence row and old field invasive management is a significant component of the clearing market.
