Bird Dog Fire and Land Management describes itself as an all-in-one land management provider specialising in wildfire prevention in the wildland urban interface, fuels reduction, invasive species management and mechanical thinning. It says it has been offering fire suppression services since 2015, with staff carrying more than thirty years of experience around the country, and that its traditional work has been engine crews running type six, type five and type four engines plus UTVs. It is worth being clear about what this firm is: a fire and fuels contractor rather than a consulting forester. Nothing it publishes offers timber cruising, timber sale administration, appraisal, forest inventory or management plan writing. What it does publish, in its own headings, is prescribed burning — turnkey or as assistance to a landowner's own burn — along with mechanical fuel reduction, defensible space work, right-of-way clearing, fireline and firebreak construction, brush removal and exotic species control on the wildland urban interface side; land clearing, hunting lanes, food plots, path restoration, slash reduction, field and path mowing and pile burning on the land management side; initial attack, mop-up and water handling equipment on wildfire response; and maintenance, mowing and fuels reduction for mitigation banks. Storm debris cleaning and pile burning is one project type it shows. It also teaches, listing the NWCG courses it runs: ICS-100 and ICS-200, S-130, S-190, S-215, S-290, L-180 and an annual arduous pack test with refresher. The recognition it publishes for itself is 8(a) certification, recognition by the State of Florida as a minority business, and Better Business Bureau accreditation, which it states carries an A+ BBB rating. Carlos Gutierrez is named as CEO, office hours are 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday, and the site publishes no address or service area of its own — the forty Florida counties on this listing come from the firm's own filing with the Florida Forest Service.

A Gainesville consulting practice listed with the Florida Forest Service across nineteen counties, from Alachua and Columbia in its home country out to Brevard, Broward and Charlotte. The firm's own site trades as Columbia Timber Company and Land Stewardship and is brief about what it does: land management plans, work spanning development, ecology and forestry, help buying and selling farm and land, and what it calls environmentally sound advice. Its stated approach is responsible stewardship of the owner's land on the principles of sustainable forestry, with a plan tailored specifically to the property rather than a standard template. The site publishes no founding date, no crew size and no minimum tract size. The certifications on file, an SAF Certified Forester and a Florida Certified Burner, matter for the prescribed fire end of that work. Source: columbiatimber.com, read 2026-09-23.

Storm Debris CleanupForestry MulchingBrush CuttingLand ClearingTree Trimming

Listed with the Florida Forest Service as a forest management consultant, with storm debris cleanup, forestry mulching and brush cutting recorded against the name on the state register and fifteen Florida counties given as the service area. The company's own website describes something narrower than that register category suggests: a family-run land services contractor rather than a consulting forestry practice. Its site states that Double A Land Maintenance & Services "provides dependable forestry mulching, tree trimming, land clearing, brush cutting, and storm debris cleanup in Wauchula and throughout Central Florida", and the company calls itself "a small, family-owned business" that takes pride in "honest work, careful operation, and treating every property with the respect it deserves". The team is described as licensed and insured, though no licence number, class or issuing body is named. On mulching, the site says the process grinds unwanted growth into a natural mulch layer that stays on site instead of being hauled away, which the company says can limit erosion, support moisture retention and leave a more manageable surface; land clearing it describes as a complete site transformation that prepares ground for construction, development or access roads. The customers it names are homeowners, landowners, farmers and property managers, and the work is aimed at homesites, acreage, pastures, lots and storm-affected land. The counties the company lists for itself are fewer and more southerly than the register's fifteen, being Hardee, Polk, Hillsborough, Manatee, Desoto, Highlands, Osceola, Okeechobee and Charlotte, with Bartow, Lakeland, Sarasota, Sebring and Wauchula named as the towns. Estimates are free and given on site, and the company says it works on low overhead with competitive pricing, but no rate or figure of any kind is published. Nothing on the site describes timber cruising, appraisal, or representing a landowner in a timber sale. As described on aalandmaintenance.com, read 23 September 2026.

Dynamic Habitat Solutions describes itself as a faith and family-based land and habitat management company serving landowners across Florida and Alabama from 1800 North Century Boulevard in McDavid; the Florida Forest Service vendor register lists it as covering all 67 Florida counties. Owner Coy McKenna leads the company, and the about page says he spent more than 13 years in law enforcement before following his passion and growing what had been evening and weekend work for landowners into a full-time business. The company sets out a three-step approach: a free consultation to evaluate the land and the owner's goals, a customized management plan built around those goals, a timeline and a budget, then the work itself. For woodland owners the relevant offers are prescribed fire, drum chopping and forestry mulching. The mulching page explains that specialized machinery shreds thick brush, cedar and invasive saplings into a fine layer of ground cover, which keeps topsoil intact and removes the need for hauling or burn piles, and says the company uses it to help private landowners in the Southeast prepare land for future use, improve wildlife visibility and manage timberland health, as well as to take out ladder fuels and underbrush that carry wildfire, open overgrown trails for hunting, recreation or site development, and reclaim choked woodland as open habitat. Pond work fills more of the site than anything else: pond cleaning and weed removal, shoreline and bank repair, leaking ponds and damaged dams, sediment and muck removal to restore depth, water quality testing, aeration systems and decorative fountains, and control of hydrilla, coontail, giant salvinia, duckweed, alligator weed, cattails, pond grass and lily pads.

F&W Forestry Services lists this office at Marianna, in Jackson County, with the Florida Forest Service, and names sixteen Florida counties as its service area — the western panhandle from Escambia and Okaloosa across Bay, Calhoun, Liberty, Gulf, Franklin, Jackson and Wakulla to Leon, and a separate northern block around Alachua, Baker, Bradford and Citrus. The services listed there are property management, timber sales, reforestation, forest inventory and mapping, and prescribed burning, backed by a Florida Certified Burner credential. The company's own website is a national corporate one that names no office locations at all, Florida's included; it says only that F&W's foresters are located throughout the United States, South America and Europe and points visitors to a find-your-local-forester map. What it does set out is the firm behind the local contact. F&W says it was founded in 1962 by Eley Frazer and Frank Wetherbee, is headquartered in Albany, Georgia, and manages millions of acres of forestland worldwide, having grown from 25 employees in two states to 100 in eight states over the 1990s and expanded into South America and Europe since. Eight service lines are published — timber sales, property management, field support services for TIMOs and REITs, forest inventory and mapping, forestland accounting, technical and analytical work, real estate, and natural capital — and on timber sales the firm describes pre-harvest valuation reporting on species, age and condition, sale layout and marketing to match timber to the best market, then on-site harvest supervision: harvest inspections and reporting, streamside management zone delineation, BMP compliance audits, timber marking, boundary re-marking and road maintenance oversight.

Listed with the Florida Forest Service as a forest management consultant across 67 Florida counties, with aerial and ground herbicide application, prescribed fire, planting services, a plant nursery and native seeding recorded on the register, and a Florida Certified Burner and Florida Licensed Commercial Pesticide Applicator against the name. On its own site the business presents three divisions, ecosystem restoration, environmental services and property management, and industrial support. It says it was "founded in 2005 by a small team of professionals dedicated to providing our customers quality products in Ecosystem Restoration", with staff who "bring over 100 years of combined experience". Its customers, the company says, "range from small private businesses to large industrial clients", among them state and federal agencies, large infrastructure companies, energy supply and delivery companies and the mining industry; the project it features is erosion control within the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan. That erosion-control work is described in terms of silt fence, floc logs, granular soil products, coconut matting, hydroseeding and sodding. Brush removal and mastication are offered for cases where heavy equipment or a prescribed burn is not an option, using rubber-track, rubber-tyre and steel-track carriers and an excavator-mounted brush cutter. Alongside those sit commercial mowing, landscaping and irrigation, bush hog and tractor work, earthwork, excavation and hauling, fencing, pump and pipe crews, and labour crews for plant and field work. On job size the site claims range rather than a floor: "whether your project is one acre or a thousand". Credentials are published against named staff rather than the company, among them FDACS licensed pesticide applicators, a DOF prescribed burn manager, an FDEP qualified stormwater inspector, FFWCC gopher tortoise authorised agents, MSHA Part 48 instructors and an FAA UAS pilot, and the firm says it maintains corporate compliance with MSHA, OSHA and EPA regulations. Nothing on the site describes timber sales, cruising or forest management plans. As described on gliearth.com, read 23 September 2026.

King Forestry, Inc. describes itself as a consulting firm providing confidential, strategic and tactical advisory services to both public and private investors in all aspects of forestry management, working on a fee or contract basis and covering every stage from initial evaluation to completion. The pattern it publishes is to analyse a client's timberland holdings, run financial analysis using up-to-date growth and yield studies and current market conditions, build a Forest Management Plan around the owner's objectives, and then carry out the field work itself, with senior managers giving hands-on supervision to in-house or contract operations. It also advises on timberland acquisitions and divestitures and on forest investment analysis, evaluating opportunities to add value both before and after an investment is made. Its published service list runs: forest management; prescribed burning; timber volume and value estimates; wildfire suppression and mitigation; timber sales marketing and administration; natural disaster assessments; BMP consultation and compliance; GIS and GPS mapping; carbon sequestration and credit consultation; and timberland security. A second business line is real estate - assistance with transactions through licensed real estate brokerage and sales associates, together with land and timber appraisals. The firm is emphatic about its independence: it acts as the owner's agent and states that it does not purchase or take possession of timber to harvest and re-sell, so as to avoid conflicts, and it points to its smaller size as part of why it can keep client work strictly confidential. Charles R. King is President. The firm dates its inception to 1996; its page titles separately advertise over 35 years of experience in forestry advisory services, a longer span than the company has existed and one the site never explains, so it most likely describes a career rather than the firm's age - both claims are the firm's own and neither is reconciled here. Its filing with the Florida Forest Service lists service across 24 Florida counties. One caution for readers: every page of the site carries a 2008-2009 copyright, so nothing on it should be taken as necessarily current. (source: kingforestry.com, read 22 September 2026)

Legacy Appraisal Services works from High Springs and is listed with the Florida Forest Service for timberland and farmland appraisal across all sixty-seven Florida counties, but its own site aims much wider and much higher up the ownership scale. The headline reads 'Specialists in All Aspects of Timberland Investment Valuation', and the firm describes itself as specialising in the valuation and financial analysis of the timberland asset across the entire Southeast, Northeast, Appalachian states and Lake States regions of the United States, as well as Central and South America, with region pages for each. The services page is built around four headings: timberland portfolio valuations, due diligence, ownership rights and encumbrances, and estate planning and fractional ownership. In practice that covers quarterly, annual and biannual valuations for investment performance reporting, identifying and valuing higher and better use opportunities, cash flow modelling and harvest scheduling on acquisitions and dispositions, financial optimisation and sensitivity analysis, and market valuations of undivided family interests for federal gift tax, estate tax compliance, intergenerational transfer and partitioning. The about page says the firm routinely values conservation easements, mitigation banks and lease fee and leasehold ownership, and extends to mineral income and carbon credits where a portfolio includes them. The clients it names are largely institutional, among them timberland investment management organisations, trust funds and endowments, conservation groups and land trusts, forest products companies, banks and wealth managers, pension and hedge funds, estate lawyers and government agencies, alongside private landowners. Staff are described as MAI and certified general appraisers licensed in every state the firm works in, with a combined 50 years of experience in the forest products industry; Scott Brodbeck, Jesse Studley and Scott Twillmann are the three people named. Work claimed since 2015 runs to over 38 million acres valued in the Southeast and over 12 million across the Northeast, Lake States and Appalachia.

MLM Private Forester, Inc. trades on its own website simply as Private Forester, Inc., and the site is built around two halves of one offer: forest management and wildlife management. On the forestry side it describes overseeing harvesting operations and site preparation, timber sales, timber health work using aerial and ground surveillance to catch insect and disease outbreaks, prescribed burning, and tree planting done in the dormant winter months, most often after 1 December and before 15 March. Its own list of forester services runs from locating boundary lines and preparing a forest management plan through estimating how much timber there is and what it is worth, timing the harvest to the market, preparing and marketing the sale package, developing the sale contract, obtaining permits and supervising the logging operation to contract. It acts as the landowner's agent in a sale rather than as a buyer, and argues the case plainly: for many growers a timber sale happens only two or three times in a lifetime, and twenty or thirty years of growth can lose much of its value through one or two mistakes at the point of sale. The other half of the business is game. It publishes trophy deer management with harvest recommendations made each season, waterfowl and duck management, turkey management for Osceola and Eastern birds, food plots for turkey, quail, dove and deer, soil evaluation and planting, and hunting lease management, and argues that running wildlife work alongside timber management lifts both a landowner's income and the value of the land. Roughly half of what the firm publishes about itself is hunting and habitat work rather than timber, which is worth knowing before calling a listing filed under forestry consulting. The firm's forestry page carries the name Mitchell L. McElroy. The site itself publishes no service area, no founding date and no telephone number; the 67 Florida counties on this listing come from the firm's own filing with the Florida Forest Service. One practical note: the site answers only over plain http, as the https address refuses the connection. (source: privateforester.com, read 22 September 2026)

Natives of Corkscrew Nursery + Environmental is a native-plant nursery and environmental contractor in Lee County, listed here from the Florida Forest Service vendor database, where it appears among forest management consultants across fourteen Florida counties. Its own site describes two halves to the business. On the nursery side it says that since 2015 it has grown to be one of the largest all-native nurseries in Florida, specializing in native plants, grasses, shrubs and trees, and in locally grown trees, shrubs and flowers — especially flowers that attract butterflies, which it notes are chosen deliberately to bring pollinators into an outdoor space. Its published nursery services are an extensive native species inventory, expert knowledge of Florida native plants, help selecting species for a landscape project, prompt statewide delivery, and contract growing, which the site explains lets a project's plant needs be fulfilled to specification and on budget when planned ahead. The environmental half offers environmental preserve restoration, with a stated specialty in lake restoration, lake enhancement, littoral shelf maintenance and protected species management; gopher tortoise work is named as the primary focus, and relocating gopher tortoises as one of its specialties. Its environmental services list covers FDEP wetland and upland determinations, exotic vegetation removal and maintenance, preserve and lake monitoring, gopher tortoise and burrowing owl surveys with FWC permitting, and licensed mangrove trimming. The company states it is licensed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to perform burrowing owl permitting, and that it serves individuals, businesses, organizations and government agencies. The nursery keeps posted hours Tuesday through Saturday, Monday by appointment. As described on nativesofcorkscrew.com, read 23 September 2026.

Natural Resources Associates is an environmental and ecological consultancy rather than a timber-consulting firm, and the distinction matters for a landowner deciding whom to call. Its staff page says the firm has been serving Sarasota and Charlotte counties and surrounding areas since 2014, and that its environmental staff has over sixty combined years of experience with the area's ecosystems and wildlife; with the Florida Forest Service it lists a service area of fourteen Florida counties, from Alachua, Baker and Bradford in the north to Broward and Lee in the south. The services page names its most common work as protected species surveys, permitting, relocation and mitigation; wetland delineation, permitting and mitigation; land management and wildlife management; prescribed fire plans and implementation; fire mitigation and protection consultation; nuisance wildlife deterrent and removal; GIS mapping; and photographic services. Its wildlife and land management page adds habitat management, ecosystem restoration, vegetation reduction, management plan writing, wildfire risk reduction and, in the firm's own wording, 'forest & timber management assistance' - one line in a nine-item list. The permitting pages set out in detail how Florida scrub-jay, gopher tortoise and bald eagle surveys and mitigation work, and how county ordinances covering grand and heritage trees are handled. Founder and president Phillip Brouse is described as a Florida Certified Prescribed Burn Manager who has worked with GPS and GIS mapping since 1997, after posts with Sarasota County, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and Charlotte County's environmental parks.

Panhandle Forestry Services, Inc. is a natural resource management company that provides professional forestry and wildlife management services for both private and corporate landowners in Florida, Georgia and Alabama. It was founded in November 2000 by David Morris and Barry McGaughey, both professional foresters who had worked for large industrial paper mills and sawmills, and the first office opened in Chipley with Cheryl Martin as controller and office manager. The published service list covers forest management plans, forest inventory, timber type maps, GIS and soil mapping, cost and income analysis, timber sales, reforestation and tree planting, prescribed burning, herbicide and fertilization applications, mechanical site preparation, mulching, road maintenance, wildlife management plans, timber harvesting and hurricane damage cleanup. In 2007 the founders partnered with Dwayne Taylor of D&S Logging to form Chipola Timber Harvesting, Inc., the company owned logging arm, whose crew foremen are described as master logger certified in Florida and trained in the state's best management practices, and which handles work from the first thinning of young pine plantations to the clear cut harvest of mature stands. The company states that in 2022 it harvested and delivered over 1.1 million tons of timber and reforested more than 2,500 acres for private non-industrial landowners.

Listed with the Florida Forest Service as a forest management consultant across 67 Florida counties, offering silvicultural and agri-services, consulting, land and forest management, wildlife management and property management, with a Florida Certified Burner and a Florida Licensed Commercial Pesticide Applicator recorded against the name. The company's own site fills that in. It bills itself as "Ecofriendly Forestry and Agricultural Services" and states a mission "to help conserve our environment through projects that help to ensure the success of responsible land use and a healthy ecosystem". Its account of its beginning is that the firm "has been working toward restoring Florida to a healthy ecosystem since 2005", when owner Brannen Willis was given the job of restoring a Central Florida conservation area and more requests followed. The site lists a Herbicide Commercial Applicator License and Florida Prescribed Burn certification against Willis's name, and describes its aquatic applicators as certified and licensed by the State of Florida. The published service list is specific: site preparation, forestry mulching, roller drum chopping, land clearing, brush mulching and mowing, bush hogging, prescribed burning with fireline work and state burn permitting, reforestation, habitat and environmental restoration, aquatic management, licensed herbicide application, exotic species treatment, biomass harvesting, native planting, food plots, farm and forestry road building, and loader, dozer and discing work. On timber the company says it manages the sale for the landowner: designating the trees to be cut, putting an inventory to area loggers for competitive bid, preparing a sale inventory of board footage, species and tree numbers, and administering and negotiating the contract between timber buyer and landowner. It also produces maps from GPS field data, including timber inventory and wetland delineation, and says private landowners can use its forest management plans to satisfy tax requirements. The site says the firm works for public and private landowners "in all of Florida and Southern Georgia". As described on promisehabitatservices.com, read 23 September 2026.

Southern Forestry Consultants lists this Monticello office with the Florida Forest Service as a forest management consultant covering twenty-five Florida counties: Jefferson itself and the surrounding Big Bend and eastern panhandle through Leon, Wakulla, Madison, Taylor, Lafayette and Liberty, a northern block running Hamilton, Suwannee, Columbia, Baker, Union, Bradford, Alachua, Dixie and Levy. Registered there are timber sales and appraisals, forest management plans, reforestation, spraying and tree planting, prescribed burning and real estate sales, with SAF Certified Forester, Association of Consulting Foresters and Georgia Registered Forester credentials and Florida certified burner and commercial pesticide applicator licences. The firm's own site confirms the office: under the heading Monticello, FL it publishes 2897 South Jefferson Street and hours of eight to five, Monday to Friday. Everything else it says is written firm-wide. SFC says it was founded in 1988 in Bainbridge, Georgia by two foresters to serve north Florida and southwest Georgia, and now lists offices at Bainbridge, Monticello, Enterprise in Alabama, Marquette in Michigan, Hattiesburg in Mississippi, Columbia in South Carolina and Kalispell in Montana, staffed by a team it credits with more than 250 years of combined experience. It describes itself as a natural resource management and consulting firm working for non-industrial, industrial, NGO and governmental owners primarily in the southeastern United States, and states its independence plainly: a forestry consultant, it says, is not employed by mills, loggers or associations and owes good faith only to the landowner, acting as the landowner's exclusive agent in selling timber. Four service pillars are published, being timber sales administration and marketing, forest management, forest planning and appraisal, and forestland improvement, with stated emphases running from inventory, appraisal and auditing through reforestation and harvest oversight to BMP compliance, prescribed burning and invasive species management. Geospatial, ecological and land-brokerage affiliates are carried on the same site. As described on soforest.com, read 23 September 2026.

Groundcover RestorationDirect SeedingLive PlantingSeed Harvesting and ProcessingHabitat Enhancement+1 more

Southern Habitats is a native plant nursery and habitat restoration contractor based at Greenville, listed with the Florida Forest Service as serving all sixty-seven Florida counties, though on its own site the only region it names is the Southeast generally. The services page puts the work plainly: 'We specialize in collecting and propagating southeastern herbaceous native plants and seeds. We use this material for projects involving groundcover restoration, wetland mitigation, erosion control, habitat improvement, aesthetic treatments and more.' The same page lists wild seed collection and processing, direct seeding, live plant installation, contract growing, bioengineering, native plant and seed sales, herbicide application, a licensed nursery, mowing and brush clearing, and wildlife food plots. Its stated speciality is fire-adapted ecosystems, and the sequence it describes is deliberate: restore the native grass base first, because grasses carry the fine fuel a thorough prescribed burn needs, then introduce wildflowers, forbs and legumes once the grass stand has taken. Seed is wild harvested from donor sites near the project, mechanically for the grass bulk and by hand for many wildflowers, then cleaned, tested and treated for dormancy before planting. The business says it grows hundreds of thousands of native grass and wildflower plugs in its nursery, keeps many species in field cultivation for seed production, and offers wild-collected and field-grown seed mixes for wet or dry sites, with published species lists for upland clayhills and sandhills, flatwoods and shallow wetlands. Separate pages address hunters managing quail, turkey, deer and dove ground, golf courses converting out-of-play areas, city and state parks, farmers working under EQIP and backyard gardeners, and the hunting page cites 25 years of experience managing groundcover for quail. Bare root switchgrass is described as its most versatile product. It is a member of the Florida Wildflower Seed and Plant Growers Association.

TerraWorx Land Group, Inc (TLG) describes itself as "a multi-disciplinary company whose staff has been offering our clients a multitude of ecological, environmental, land management and property services for over 25 years," adding that "Paramount is our ability to provide creative and innovative ideas in an effort to resolve a myriad of issues, design challenges, and regulatory concerns that our clients often encounter." The home page carries the line "Other's will tell you what you can't do, We tell you what you can." Its services page groups the work under three headings. Ecological services: preliminary ecological assessments including GIS and LIDAR evaluations, wetland assessment and delineation, protected species assessment and surveys, regulatory permitting covering both State Environmental Resource Permitting and Federal 404 wetland permitting, wetland mitigation bank design, permitting and management, mitigation design and planting, invasive species control, and "project design alternatives to maximize site use while minimizing mitigation/construction costs." Environmental services: Phase I Environmental Site Assessments, Phase II ESAs and testing, environmental remediation and clean-up, brownfields and incentive programs, and development design alternatives. Land management services: "heavy under brushing utilizing skid steer mounted grinding head mowers," herbicide application, removal of invasives such as Chinese tallow and Brazilian pepper, installation of native plant material for habitat restoration, timber management and planning, wildlife habitat design and management, and Natural Resource Conservation Service grant programs. Its image gallery, captioned as "some of our highlighted services," shows before-and-after mowing and prescribed burning. The only geography the company publishes is two offices — 88 Riberia St. Suite 360, St. Augustine, FL 32084 and 110N Gross Rd, Kingsland, GA 31548 — with no service area, counties or radius named anywhere; the home page is titled "Environmental Consulting | TerraWorx Land Group | United States." No founding year is given (the "over 25 years" is a staff-experience claim), no staff member is named, no certification or licence number appears, and no minimum tract size is published. Nothing on the site says the company buys standing timber: "timber management and planning" is one line among roughly twenty. This listing sits under forestry consultants; the company presents itself first as an ecological and environmental consultancy and a land-clearing and mitigation contractor, so it should not be read as a timber-side forestry practice.

The Forestry Company's pitch is 'Less Talk.... More Action': it says it does more than tell landowners what they should do to manage land for wildlife habitat and profitability, it does it for them, with trained staff who develop and implement the forest management plan to improve the income potential of the land while enhancing wildlife habitat. It says it employs experienced foresters, technicians and appraisers, and runs its own skilled operators and fleet of heavy equipment for the toughest site preparation and prescribed burning jobs. On timber sales, staff market the timber and manage the harvest following all silvicultural Best Management Practices, and the firm implements a timber security system during the harvest to ensure appropriate accounting and payment. On inventory, its cruisers use hand-held computers to capture volume and product classes, and it can provide a full appraisal following the Uniform Standards of Appraisal Practice. The published service list runs to prescribed burning and wildfire suppression; site preparation, herbicide and fertiliser application; reforestation; timber sales and harvesting; timber inventory and appraisal; real estate and appraisal; wildlife management; timberland management; and specialty services. Founder Don Curtis grew up around the forests and mountains of east Tennessee, took a BS in Forest Resources at the Warnell School of Forestry at the University of Georgia, graduated in 1979, worked in both public and private sector forestry, and started The Forestry Company at age 40 — the site prints those two facts but never a founding year, so none is recorded here. There is a similar split on reach: the mission statement limits the work to public and private landowners in Florida and Georgia, while the founder's story says the business grew to serve landowners across the southeast USA. The sixty-seven Florida counties on this listing come from the firm's own filing with the Florida Forest Service, which also records Association of Consulting Foresters membership, Georgia Registered Forester, Florida Certified Burner, Florida licensed commercial pesticide applicator, certified real estate appraiser and Florida real estate broker credentials. The office is at 502 West Green Street in Perry. (source: theforestrycompany.com, read 23 September 2026)

Workman Forestry, LLC presents itself on its own website as a Gainesville tree service and arborist practice rather than a timber-side consulting firm, serving residential, commercial and government customers throughout Gainesville and surrounding areas. The arborist work covers tree inspections for health and structural integrity, formal risk assessment using the ISA TRAQ methodology when it is needed, judging whether and how urgently a tree should come out, species selection and planning for a healthy urban forest, and helping owners understand local regulations and navigate permitting; the firm says its arborist will consult on a single tree or on a larger property. On the ground it handles planned and emergency removals, piecing trees down with bucket trucks or lightweight spider lifts that reach into tight spaces, laying ground protection mats to limit rutting, and chipping debris on site so nothing is left piled at the curb. It also prunes for clearance, directional growth, weight management in older trees, wind resistance and deadwood over buildings, offers structural pruning of young trees, and is explicit about what bad pruning does to a tree when a customer has inherited someone else's work. Live oaks get their own discussion: the firm says they want pruning every three to five years. The chips do not go to waste - fresh mulch for weed control and pathways and decomposed mulch for building soil organic matter are delivered in the Gainesville area, with raw material for hugelkultur and logs for owners who mill their own. The firm is insured and gives free estimates. Tom Workman, owner and founder, holds an M.S. in Forest Ecology from the University of Florida and previously worked as a Biologist II for the Florida Park Service, as Land Manager for the St. Johns River Water Management District, and as Urban Forester at the University of Florida; he founded Workman Forestry in 2010. Kelly McPherson joined in 2017 and became an ISA Certified Arborist in 2019; she holds an M.S. in Botany from the University of Florida, the Tree Risk Assessment Qualification and the Florida ISA Prescription Pruning Qualification, and brings six years as a Biologist for the Florida Park Service and eleven with the Alachua County Forever Land Conservation Program. Separately from the website, the firm is filed with the Florida Forest Service as a forest management consultant across 13 Florida counties, listing timber sales, site prep and planting, mowing, mulching, fire lines, prescribed burning, roads, boundary clearing and property maintenance - work the website itself does not mention.

Macclenny, FL
Sawmill

Thrift Log Homes is carried in the Primary Forest Products Network mill directory at Macclenny, in Baker County, as a softwood sawmill. The website held for it presents the business as Thrift Log Homes of Florida and describes the selling side of the operation rather than the mill: a Florida company specialising in cypress log homes and log cabins. The site says it sells cypress only, for its longevity and lower maintenance, and argues in its FAQ that cypress holds up to Florida and Georgia humidity, termites and other wood-eating insects in a way pine does not, pointing out that some of the oldest wooden log structures in both states are cypress. Rather than a fixed catalogue of plans, it offers to quote any floor plan a customer brings, including a conventional house plan, a competitor's plan or a concrete block plan converted to a log home, and names old-world Cracker style and newer hybrid log homes as its specialities, with free custom design on every home. It also says it will help a buyer build a start-to-finish budget without later change orders. Areas it names for service are St. Augustine, Williston, Live Oak, Lake City, Ocala and Jacksonville, and it adds that it can build anywhere in Florida where the customer has land. The company describes itself as a Florida company with a single location, registered on Florida SunBiz, and states that it works by appointment only.

Forestry MulchingLand ClearingBrush CuttingTree TrimmingStorm Debris Cleanup

The Florida Forest Service's forest products buyer register lists this business for cabbage palm, crooked wood, palmetto and upland timber, bought across fifteen Florida counties as the buyer lists them with the state. The company's own website carries none of that. It says nothing about buying timber or any forest product, and names no species, grades, minimum tract size or purchasing terms, so a landowner approaching this listing with palm or upland timber to sell will have to settle the buying side directly. What the site does describe is contractor work on land. It states that Double A Land Maintenance & Services "provides dependable forestry mulching, tree trimming, land clearing, brush cutting, and storm debris cleanup in Wauchula and throughout Central Florida", sold to homeowners, landowners, farmers and property managers, and the company calls itself "a small, family-owned business" whose team is licensed and insured, without naming a licence number or issuing body. On the mulching work the site says vegetation is ground into a natural mulch layer left on site rather than hauled away, which the company says can limit erosion and support moisture retention; land clearing it frames as preparing ground for construction, development or access roads, and brush cutting as controlling tall grass, weeds and small bushes. The counties the company lists for itself are Hardee, Polk, Hillsborough, Manatee, Desoto, Highlands, Osceola, Okeechobee and Charlotte, and the towns named are Bartow, Lakeland, Sarasota, Sebring and Wauchula. Estimates are free and given on site, with no price or rate published anywhere. The site gives a Wauchula city and ZIP but no street address, and a single first name, Darren, on its contact page.

This is the Marianna entry on the Florida Forest Service's forest products buyer list, where F & W Forestry Services registers for pinestraw, upland timber and wetland timber and names twenty-two Florida counties: the western panhandle from Escambia, Santa Rosa and Okaloosa across Walton, Holmes, Washington, Bay, Calhoun, Jackson, Gulf, Franklin and Liberty to Gadsden, Leon, Jefferson and Wakulla, with a separate northern and central block taking in Alachua, Baker, Bradford, Citrus, Brevard and Broward. The company's own website is a national corporate one that names no office locations at all, Florida's included; it says only that F&W's foresters are located throughout the United States, South America and Europe, and points visitors to a find-your-forester map. What it does set out is the firm behind the local contact. F&W says it was founded in 1962 by Eley Frazer and Frank Wetherbee, is headquartered in Albany, Georgia, and manages millions of acres of forestland worldwide. Its published timeline runs from regional inventories and forestland appraisals in the 1970s, through a decade in which the firm went from 25 employees in two states to 100 in eight, to work in Uruguay and Brazil and a Tree Farm Group certification in the 2000s, a stake in the French firm Cabinet Courdert in 2014, the acquisition of Fountains US and UK in 2016, and the FWS Forestry partnership with Stuntzner Engineering & Forestry in 2020. Eight service lines are published: timber sales, property management, field support services for TIMOs and REITs, forest inventory and mapping, forestland accounting, technical and analytical work, real estate and natural capital. On timber sales the firm describes pre-harvest valuations reporting species, age and condition, sale prescriptions and marketing to match timber to the best market, then on-site harvest supervision: harvest inspections and reporting, streamside management zone delineation, BMP compliance audits, timber marking, boundary re-marking, road maintenance oversight, drone monitoring, and Phase I Environmental Site Assessment during property transactions. None of it is written about the Marianna office in particular. As described on fwforestry.com, read 23 September 2026.

Gator Timber and Land is a timber and land buyer working out of 1520 Highway 17 North at Palatka, and it tells landowners on its own site that it will help whether they want to sell or buy land or standing timber. Its Buy/Sell Timber page calls the firm 'a major purchaser of timber in the Northeast Florida area, purchasing over four million dollars in stumpage annually', and names the counties it primarily operates in as Putnam, Clay, St. Johns, Flagler, Volusia, Duval, Baker, Bradford, Alachua, Marion, Union and Columbia, overlapping but not identical with the sixteen Florida counties the buyer lists with the Florida Forest Service. The About page widens that to buying and selling timber and land in North Florida and South Georgia. The same Buy/Sell page states a floor twice over: the minimum acreage for purchase is 20 acres of well stocked pine timber. Cutting is contracted rather than done in house, by nine contract crews the company says have close ties to it, with site preparation and replanting of cutover land handled by contractors who have worked for the firm for many years, and the site states that all of its loggers are Master Logger certified and take annual training. The replant page says that for every tree harvested another is planted. The history is long: it began as Springside Lumber Company, a mill west of Palatka started by Kelley Smith, Sr. in 1945, became a timber dealership in 1957, was bought by Kelley Smith, Jr. in 1972, was owned by Union Camp from 1978 until Smith bought it back in 1995, and took its present name in 2003. Kelley Smith, Jr. and Stan Browning own and operate it today, and the company is a member of the Putnam County Chamber of Commerce. As described on gatortimber.com, read 23 September 2026.

Hosford, FL

Fifteen counties, as the buyer itself lists them with the Florida Forest Service: Baker, Bay, Brevard, Broward, Calhoun, Citrus, Gadsden, Gulf, Holmes, Jackson, Leon, Liberty, Wakulla, Walton and Washington. That is a panhandle core around the Hosford office at 12995 NE SR65 in Liberty County, with outliers on the Atlantic coast and in south-east Florida that sit a long way from the rest — they are reproduced here as the state's Forest Products Buyers register carries them. The Primary Forest Products Network separately lists a Georgia-Pacific oriented strand board mill at the same Hosford address, so this buying desk and a mill share a road. Georgia-Pacific's own site does not describe the Hosford operation at all: gp.com has no page for it, and the locations section is a state selector that names Florida without naming a facility. The site describes the company instead. Georgia-Pacific says it was founded in 1927 in Augusta, Georgia, as the Georgia Hardwood Lumber Company, a hardwood lumber wholesaler operating five sawmills in the South; it took its present name in 1956, moved its headquarters from Portland to Atlanta in 1982, and was acquired by Koch in 2005, becoming a privately held, wholly owned subsidiary of what it now calls a Koch, Inc. company. It states more than 30,000 employees, more than 150 locations worldwide and $15 billion invested into its operations since 2014, and lists pine solutions among its seven businesses alongside building products, cellulose, consumer products, GP PRO, packaging and recycling. On stewardship it says it works to maximise recycling, reduce energy use and set the standard in sustainable forestry. Nothing on the site sets out species, product classes, tract sizes or terms for this buyer. As described on gp.com, read 23 September 2026.

It traces itself to a single building in Augusta, Georgia in 1927, and describes maximising recycling, reducing energy use and sustainable forestry as its stewardship priorities. Its locations page is a state-by-state selector, and none of the corporate pages read for this listing names this Palatka wood and fiber supply office or says what it buys, so nothing above describes the Palatka operation itself and the 1927 date is the company's rather than this office's.

The company dates its founding to 1927 in a single building in Augusta, Georgia, and is a Koch, Inc. company; that 1927 date belongs to the corporation, not to this Perry record. Its locations page lists Florida among nearly 30 states but does not itemise any individual Florida facility. The single mention of Perry anywhere in the pages read is on Georgia-Pacific's own history timeline, which records that in 2023 the company closed its Foley Cellulose mill in Perry, Florida; the site says nothing about what wood and fibre buying, if any, continues from the One Buckeye Drive address under which the Florida Forest Service register carries this listing, as described on gp.com, read 22 September 2026.

The Florida Forest Service's forest products buyer register carries a long entry for this business, covering cabbage palm, crooked wood, palmetto, pinestraw, longleaf, upland timber, wetland timber and other products, together with chopping, discing, hand, machine and V-blade planting, herbicide, mowing, raking, scalping and prescribed burning, across 67 Florida counties. The company's own website does not mention buying timber or any forest product at all, so the purchasing side of this listing rests on the register alone and a landowner with timber to sell should confirm it directly. What the site describes is a land and vegetation contractor. It says Ground Level was "founded in 2005 by a small team of professionals dedicated to providing our customers quality products in Ecosystem Restoration", that its staff "bring over 100 years of combined experience", and that it works in three divisions: ecosystem restoration, environmental services and property management, and industrial support. Its customers "range from small private businesses to large industrial clients", including state and federal agencies, infrastructure and energy companies and the mining industry, and the project it features is erosion control within the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan. The published work includes erosion control with silt fence, floc logs, coconut matting, hydroseeding and sodding; brush removal and mastication with rubber-track, rubber-tyre and steel-track carriers and an excavator-mounted brush cutter; commercial mowing, landscaping and irrigation; bush hog and tractor work, earthwork, excavation and hauling; fencing, pump and pipe crews and industrial labour crews. On job size it offers a range rather than a floor: "whether your project is one acre or a thousand". Credentials are published against named staff rather than the company, among them FDACS licensed pesticide applicators, a DOF prescribed burn manager, an FDEP qualified stormwater inspector and FFWCC gopher tortoise authorised agents.

Standing Timber PurchasingTimber HarvestingContract LoggingFree Timber AppraisalTimber Site Preparation+1 more

Loncala, Inc. owns and manages roughly 23,000 acres of timber and agricultural land in north Florida, with every operation run from a headquarters built in 2007 on its ranch property at High Springs. Its about page lays out the whole arc: chartered in April 1920 as Loncala Phosphate Company, it tried turpentine, tung oil groves, building materials, cattle and crop farming before soft phosphate operations beginning in 1940 funded the land clearing and site preparation that supported a reforestation program started in 1950. Phosphate mining ceased in February 2006 after 85 years. Timber harvesting began in the early 1960s; the company says harvest from its own lands has grown from 20,000 tons a year in the early 1980s to 150,000 tons today, and the harvesting operation overall from 50,000 tons to roughly 200,000 tons. Its forestry page states that Loncala grows and harvests pine from company lands for about half the year and spends the remainder producing timber purchased from private landowners or working as a contract producer for industrial timber companies, and that it owns and harvests from Hamilton County on the Georgia line south to below Marion County in central Florida. It says it is actively seeking timberland owners interested in selling timber and will appraise standing timber at no cost, through its forester Tim Odom. Felling is done with a feller buncher, whose operator sorts to pulpwood, large and small chip-n-saw, ply logs and poles; trees are limbed through a gate, skidded to a ramp and sorted again by a log loader. The company holds the Master Logger designation, adheres to Best Management Practices, notes Florida's 1999 Outstanding Logger of the Year award and a 2000 Southeastern Region Logger of the Year title, and employs 15 to 20 full-time people across land management, farming and logging.

This is the Florida Forest Service's forest products buyer entry for Natives of Corkscrew Nursery + Environmental, whose register subcategories read bedding, hand planting, herbicide, longleaf, mowing, palmetto, pinestraw, upland timber and wetland timber across fourteen Florida counties. The company's own website does not describe buying timber, and nothing here should be read as a timber-purchase claim; what it does describe is a native-plant nursery and an environmental restoration contractor working from Peace Road in Lee County. Since 2015, the site says, Natives of Corkscrew has grown to be one of the largest all-native nurseries in Florida, specializing in native plants, grasses, shrubs and trees, with an extensive native species inventory, help selecting species for a landscape project, prompt statewide delivery, and a contract growing service it describes as the way to be confident that a project's plant needs will be fulfilled according to specification and on budget. On the environmental side it offers preserve restoration, lake restoration and enhancement, littoral shelf maintenance and protected species management, naming gopher tortoise work as its primary focus and gopher tortoise relocation as a specialty. Its environmental services list covers FDEP wetland and upland determinations, exotic vegetation removal and maintenance, preserve and lake monitoring, gopher tortoise and burrowing owl surveys with FWC permitting, and licensed mangrove trimming, and it states that it is licensed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to perform burrowing owl permitting. Work is offered to individuals, businesses, organizations and government agencies, and the nursery is open Tuesday through Saturday with Monday by appointment.

This Graceville entry is the timber-buying side of Rex Lumber. The Florida Forest Service vendor register lists it as a forest products buyer working in 23 Florida counties, under the subcategories upland timber and wetland timber. Rex Lumber's own site does not use the name Rex Lumber Co. for a separate buying company; it puts procurement under Woodlands Timber, which the site lists among the operations based at Graceville alongside the mill, the corporate office and Rex Transportation. The Woodlands Timber page names a Graceville procurement manager, a senior procurement forester and a procurement forester, and the two cell numbers it publishes for the first two of those match the phone numbers carried in this listing; the mailing address here, P.O. Box 7, is the same box the site gives for the Graceville mill. The company describes itself as a fourth-generation, family-owned lumber manufacturer established in the 1920s - its history page says W. D. McRae founded Rex Lumber Company in Graceville in 1926 - operating four mills in Florida, Mississippi and Alabama, with the Graceville site bought back by the family at a bankruptcy auction in 2001 and running again from March 2003. The site states that the McRae family also owns Apalachee Pole Company, Woodlands Timber, Rex Transportation and over 16,000 acres of timber land in Florida, Alabama and Georgia, and that the mills turn harvested timber into southern yellow pine lumber. Nothing on the site sets out a minimum tract size, a payment basis or the terms on which timber is bought, so a landowner would have to ask. As described on rex-lumber.com, read 23 September 2026.

Wetland Assessment & DelineationProtected Species Assessment & SurveysEnvironmental Resource Permitting (State)Federal 404 Wetland PermittingWetland Mitigation Bank Design & Management+1 more

TerraWorx Land Group, Inc (TLG) describes itself as "a multi-disciplinary company whose staff has been offering our clients a multitude of ecological, environmental, land management and property services for over 25 years," adding that "Paramount is our ability to provide creative and innovative ideas in an effort to resolve a myriad of issues, design challenges, and regulatory concerns that our clients often encounter." The home page carries the line "Other's will tell you what you can't do, We tell you what you can." Its services page groups the work under three headings. Ecological services: preliminary ecological assessments including GIS and LIDAR evaluations, wetland assessment and delineation, protected species assessment and surveys, regulatory permitting covering both State Environmental Resource Permitting and Federal 404 wetland permitting, wetland mitigation bank design, permitting and management, mitigation design and planting, invasive species control, and "project design alternatives to maximize site use while minimizing mitigation/construction costs." Environmental services: Phase I Environmental Site Assessments, Phase II ESAs and testing, environmental remediation and clean-up, brownfields and incentive programs, and development design alternatives. Land management services: "heavy under brushing utilizing skid steer mounted grinding head mowers," herbicide application, removal of invasives such as Chinese tallow and Brazilian pepper, installation of native plant material for habitat restoration, timber management and planning, wildlife habitat design and management, and Natural Resource Conservation Service grant programs. Its image gallery, captioned as "some of our highlighted services," shows before-and-after mowing and prescribed burning. The only geography the company publishes is two offices — 88 Riberia St. Suite 360, St. Augustine, FL 32084 and 110N Gross Rd, Kingsland, GA 31548 — with no service area, counties or radius named anywhere; the home page is titled "Environmental Consulting | TerraWorx Land Group | United States." No founding year is given (the "over 25 years" is a staff-experience claim), no staff member is named, no certification or licence number appears, and no minimum tract size is published. Nothing on the site says the company buys standing timber: "timber management and planning" is one line among roughly twenty. This listing is filed under timber buyers; nothing the company publishes supports that reading, and the description above should be taken as the company's own account of what it does.

Land ClearingClearing & GrubbingForestry MulchingTree RemovalErosion Control+1 more

Treecycle Land Clearing Inc. works out of Lake Worth in Palm Beach County and is carried on the Florida Forest Service vendor database across 28 Florida counties, from Broward, Miami-Dade and Monroe north to Alachua, Bay and Jefferson. Its own site describes a different trade from the one the register files it under. In its words, “We specialize in clearing and grubbing large properties,” with projects that include golf courses, airports, shopping malls, highways, subdivisions, reservoirs and landfills, and “from small tree removal projects to large-scale commercial developments.” Alongside clearing it lists forestry mulching, erosion control, tree protection, grapple services, hauling, tree removal by removal, cutting in place or Fecon mowing, hurricane debris relief, and clean vegetation disposal; the erosion-control work covers silt fence, floating and staked turbidity barrier and tree protection, using two types of trencher, rock wheel and track type, so the crew “can tackle any South Florida terrain.” The site prioritises protecting Florida native and other protected vegetation as specified per project before any clearing takes place, and says the company cultivates the land and re-uses the material in an eco-friendly manner, under the masthead motto “Preserving the best and Recycling the rest.” Nothing on the site describes buying standing timber or dealing in logs, species, grades or stumpage: the only prices it publishes are tipping fees it charges to receive material at its own disposal site, vegetation including clean logs, yard waste and stumps at $4–$6 per yard, so the money runs the opposite way from a timber buyer's. Read it as a land-clearing and site-work contractor that also operates a disposal and recycling yard. The company says it was established in 2005 but carries over 40 years in the construction industry, and that it is family owned and operated; three of the principals named on its team page share the surname Casey. It has opened a second site at 5000 SW Green Farms Ln in Palm City, in Martin County, as a disposal location for clean material and vegetation, and it names Stuart, Martin County, St. Cloud, Broward and SWA among the landfills it serves. Free estimates are offered. The site says it will take on a job “whether 1 acre or 1,000 acres”, so one acre is the smallest job it states it will come out for.

Questions landowners ask

How many timber buyers and foresters serve Baker County?

155 businesses are listed for Baker County: 56 consulting foresters and 99 buyers, loggers and mills. 1 of them has an office in the county.

How much is my timber worth in Baker County?

Nobody can tell you what your timber is worth without walking it. Value depends on the species, the size and grade of the trees, how thickly they stand, the ground conditions and how easily a logger can reach them. UF/IFAS Florida Land Steward, summarising Timber Mart-South publishes a quarterly Timber Price Update, state-wide average pine stumpage in $/ton, with no hardwood series published, which tells you what the market is doing, not what your tract holds. Anyone who quotes you a figure without seeing the land is guessing, and a guess in that direction is rarely in your favour.

Do I need a forestry consultant to sell timber in Baker County?

You do not have to use one. A consulting forester works for you rather than the buyer, marks the timber, runs a sealed-bid sale and typically charges a percentage of the sale. Research from several state extension services has found that timber sold through a consultant often returns enough more to cover the fee, though results vary by tract and by market. The decision usually turns on the size of the sale and whether you have sold timber before.

Do I need a permit to cut timber in Florida?

Florida has no statewide permit and no notification to harvest timber on your own land. The forestry chapters of the state code govern the Forest Service and state-owned land, not a private harvest, and state law puts normal silviculture outside the environmental resource permit that otherwise covers work affecting wetlands and surface water. One filing is easy to mistake for a notification and is not one: the Notice of Intent to Implement is a single voluntary enrolment in the state's silviculture Best Management Practices, filed once rather than for each harvest, and what it buys is a legal presumption that the operation meets state water quality standards. Florida's BMPs sit between voluntary and mandatory — the manual is adopted by rule rather than published as advice, following it is elective until you enrol, and once enrolled a failure to implement is referred to the Department of Environmental Protection. Counties and cities are held back, but only conditionally: they may not regulate or charge a fee for a bona fide farm operation on land carrying the agricultural classification where the state's BMPs are being implemented. Miss any of those three and the local tree or land-clearing ordinance applies in full, so check with your county before work starts. Two things worth knowing before you sign: Florida does not license or register foresters, so a forester's credentials here are professional rather than statutory; and Florida's dealer bonding law, which lets a produce grower claim against a buyer's bond, expressly excludes timber and forest products, so your contract is the only protection you have against a buyer who does not pay.
