TOTAL HARVEST - Sustainable Logging Practices

 To market logs for the highest value, a strategic approach focusing on quality, specifications, market conditions, and a relationship with multiple log buyers is essential.

  Maximize Log Quality During Harvesting:

  • Careful Felling: Minimize breakage and damage to the logs during the felling process.
  • Proper Bucking: Cut logs to optimal lengths based on market demands and potential for high-grade sections. 

  • Efficient and economical harvesting: Removing all trees in one operation can be the most cost-effective and efficient method for timber extraction, requiring fewer entries into your forestland.

Select harvest/thinning - forest health focuseD

  For  this 35-year-old timber stand, the well-planned commercial thinning operation 8 years prior with a strong focus on removing less desirable trees to improve the health, growth, and stability of the remaining timber has been very effective. This sets the stand up for continued healthy growth and potentially a more valuable final harvest in the future. 


 Thinning: At 35 years old, many timber stands are likely experiencing significant competition for resources like sunlight, water, and nutrients. Commercial thinning involves selectively removing some trees to: 

  • Increase growth: By reducing competition, the remaining trees have more access to resources and can grow faster and larger.
  • Improve tree quality: Thinning can remove poorly formed, diseased,

 Forest Health Improvement: This is a key objective that can be integrated into a thinning operation. By removing weaker and diseased trees, you can improve the overall health and resilience of the stand, making it less susceptible to insect outbreaks and diseases. Thinning also improves light penetration to the forest floor, which can encourage the growth of a diverse understory, benefiting wildl

searching out and capitalizing on specialty log markets

 To capitalize on specialty log markets, we identify and cater to niche demands that go beyond standard sawlogs and pulpwood. These markets often value unique characteristics, species, or specific processing. 

We will take the time to research and directly contact potential buyers in these niche markets.

Large Dimension Timbers: There's a market for very large, sound logs for timber framing, log homes, and specialty construction.
