Michigan's Forests

Today Michigan has more forest land acres than ever,  since the time of the original logging of early statehood.  The woodlands of Michigan have made a remarkable comeback that makes it among the most important sources of timber in the nation.

From the lands once called "scalped" of the original forests, to over 19 million acres, over half the land in Michigan, of now wooded timber lands, annual surpluses of timber and fiber above what is harvested proves the dynamism of the forests that continue to produce more than is being used.

 Your Forest Management Legacy

A continuing  Forest Management Legacy means providing guidance to the people who will make management decisions for the future.

It is our job to help insure wildlife habitats are protected, timber grows in rotation, and stands are adequately regenerated.  As a company committed to sustainable forest excellence and woodland stewardship; we will provide you the tools necessary to fulfill your objectives.

There are many objectives timber land owners face when managing a woodlot.  Often overwhelmed by these variations, owners find difficulty in stating a clear plan for their woodlot. To simplify all of this: our experience has shown there are three main groups most timber land owners prioritize.

These include in no particular order, income production, long term investment, and personal satisfaction, including wildlife habitat, recreational use, and overall aesthetics.

Confused?  That's alright.  Most timber land owners find it easiest to work with a Sustainable Forestry Consultant.  We will answer all your questions, and provide you with a projection plan that best suits your needs.

Making the right decisions is not always easy. Some timber land owners believe it is unethical to disturb the forest in any way. Yet we need the raw materials the forest yields, and have demonstrated we can harvest timber without jeopardizing other values. Careful planning with an eye on the future will almost always lead to the right decisions.

We are fortunate to live in an era where our knowledge of forest ecosystems is expanding rapidly. Our ability to make the right timber management decisions increases as our commitment to responsible forestry practices is increased.

"Forests are a renewable resource that are capable of providing an ongoing supply of products and services. All timber lands can provide some of these products and services, but a managed forest produces the greatest amount and will continue to do this indefinitely if correctly managed.
