Turn Your Timber into a PayDay
Your Timber Is Too Valuable To Neglect
Healthy Forests
Forest management is an informed combination of science and art. It’s thinking long-term. It’s hitting the reset button on your woods and making them better than ever. It’s implementing great practices that will leave your landscape in a healthy position for future generations.
Wildlife Habitat
Animals thrive in a forest that is properly maintained. Turkey, smaller bird families, and whitetail deer love the edges of trails and openings where forage grows because of sufficient sunlight. Forest management creates those trails and openings. It’s a win-win for everyone, wildlife included.
Wood Products
Mulch, paper, firewood products, household furniture, DIY adventures, and construction material–all come from timber harvest. By choosing sustainable forestry for your land, you benefit financially while benefiting the wood industry. And that’s exciting!
Personal PayDay
The money you make selling quality trees may cover farm payments or other dream improvements to your property. We’ll send you a check for 100% of the agreed-upon sum before a single tree is cut. It’s as easy as that.

Targeted Cutting
Foresters use one of two methods for moderate forest harvest strategy: even age–the strategy of keeping most harvestable trees within a close age range, or uneven age–the strategy to layer canopies of different age trees for maximum wildlife diversity.

We Care About Forests. We Care About You.
You care about your land, and you care about your environment.

Good Forestry Matters
It may be tempting for landowners to choose short-term income at the expense of long-term value. Foresters and loggers who participate in a practice known as “high-grading” are one of the biggest challenges to long-term value. High-grading creams out all the best trees and leaves the low-quality trees. This not only is an easy money ploy for the harvesting crew, but it propagates a forest of low-quality wood for the future.
Forests must be “weeded” just like a garden, taking lower-quality trees along with the higher quality trees is important for the health and value of the woodland.
Stoltzfus has professional foresters with many years of experience in private forest management. With a company like Stoltzfus, you get the best of both worlds – top-notch forestry expertise with private company care and attention, and you don’t have to pay a commission for it! It is important to find a logger you can trust to treat the property like it is their own.
The success of your final outcome of a stewardship plan for your woods will depend on how well you’re able to identify and implement your goals and the support you’ll find along the way. Remember, choosing sustainable forestry means maximizing habitat value, increasing recreational value, and maximizing the periodic value of the forest products you have to offer to the world.
