A Valuable Commodity

Most landowners are unaware of the true value of their timber and are easily misled by potential buyers. You can avoid this problem by having us inventory your timber before it is sold. Once the volume, quality, and value of the trees have been assessed, we will make harvest recommendations that will best meet your needs while preserving the integrity of the property. Once you make your management decision, we can act as your representative during all phases of the timber sale.
We first prepare a bid invitation which outlines the terms and conditions of the sale. The bid invitation is distributed to insured, reputable buyers. If the timber is sold and the title is clear, we assist with the preparation of the timber sales contract and supervise the harvesting operation. During the timber sale and harvest, especially where absentee landowners are concerned, Jenkins Forest Resources LLC provides periodic progress reports. This process enables maximum control over the operation and maximum yields for the landowner.
Forest Management for Timber Sales
While this webpage focuses on the specifics of timber sales, it's important to remember that timber sales are just one aspect of a comprehensive forest management plan. At Jenkins Forest Resources, we believe in a holistic approach to forest management that considers the long-term health of the forest as well as your financial goals.
Our forest management services can help you get the most out of your timber sales by:
- Developing a Sustainable Forest Management Plan: A well-crafted forest management plan will take into account the size and composition of your forest, your soil quality, and your long-term goals for the property. This plan will guide your timber sales decisions and ensure that your forest remains healthy and productive for generations to come.
- Selective Harvesting: We use selective harvesting techniques to remove mature trees while protecting healthy young trees and wildlife habitat. This helps to ensure a sustainable supply of timber for future harvests.
- Maximizing Timber Value: We can help you determine the best time to sell your timber and how to get the best possible price for your trees.
By taking a comprehensive approach to forest management, you can ensure that your timber sales are a profitable venture that also benefits the environment.
