Working with woodlot owners

Your woodlot is an inheritance. We treat it like one.

Most landowners only harvest once or twice in a lifetime. Get it wrong and you live with it for decades. Here's how we make sure you get it right.

A fair deal, in writing.

Whether you own forty acres behind the house or four hundred up a tote road, the deal is the same: we walk it with you, lay out an honest plan, pay fair stumpage, and cut so the woods keep producing.

You're not selling your trees to us — you're hiring us to manage your most valuable acres. That means you stay in control: you see the plan, you approve the marking, and you're paid for every cord and thousand board-feet by real mill scale. No flat lowball offers for the whole lot sight-unseen.

What you get

The landowner promise.

Free timber assessment

We walk your lot, cruise the timber, and tell you straight what you've got, what it's worth, and what — if anything — is worth cutting this year. No cost, no obligation, no pressure to sign.

Fair stumpage, paid honest

You see the mill scale and tally tickets. You get paid by the cord and thousand board-feet at real market rates — and you know exactly what your wood weighed and what it brought.

Sustainable selective harvest

We take the mature, the crowded, and the declining — and leave your healthy crop trees, seed trees, and young growth standing to carry the woodlot forward to the next harvest.

Land left better

Trails graded, water bars set, landings cleaned up, ruts smoothed. We leave a lot you can walk, hunt, and harvest again — not a mess for you to fix on your own dime.

You stay in control

You approve the plan and the marking before a saw runs. Walk the job any day you like — it's your land, and we work like guests on it.

Tree Growth & planning help

Enrolled in Maine's Tree Growth Tax program, or thinking about it? We'll help you stay compliant and connect you with a licensed forester whenever your plan calls for one.

From here to harvested

How a harvest comes together.

Four steps, no surprises. You'll know what's happening at every stage.

1

Walk the lot

We meet you on the property, look at your boundaries, goals, and access, and listen to what you want this woodlot to be in twenty years.

2

Assessment & plan

We cruise the timber, mark the take, and put a written harvest plan and stumpage offer in your hands — clear volumes, clear prices, clear boundaries.

3

Harvest

Our crew and our iron do the work on a schedule that respects mud season and your land. Walk the job any day and see exactly what's happening.

4

Cleanup & replant

We grade the trails, set the water bars, clean the landing, and — where it fits the plan — replant or release the next stand. Then hand the lot back better.

Let's walk your woodlot.

The free timber assessment costs you nothing and commits you to nothing. You'll come away knowing what your woods are worth and what's worth doing — whether you harvest with us or not.
