Why a consulting Forester?
There are many management options available to woodland owners. Empire State Forestry Service can assist you in preparing a woodlot management plan, whether this is an actual written plan or simply the identification of your options. These can be tailored to both small and large acreage owners and can include both short and long term goals.
Proper woodland management involves marking, thinning, and marketing various forest products such as timber, cord-wood poles or Christmas trees. Through our competitive bidding process we can assure you the highest possible price for the timber or cord-wood sold from your forest land. You can gain the peace of mind in having a professional forester acting as your agent and providing you with proper management techniques and overseeing services. This is especially important to absentee landowners.

Both of these organizations recognize the privilege of pursuing personal goals while at the same time stressing your responsibility for good woodland stewardship. We have been a certified tree farm inspector since 1993.
