Qualified Foresters Working in Wexford & Missaukee Counties
The listing is in alphabetical order.   The Wexford Conservation District does not endorse any company or individual."USDA-TSP" following the  name indicated that that forester is a Technical Service Provider. Technical Service Providers are the ONLY foresters that can be used if the landowner chooses to apply for cost-sharing assistance through USAD-NRCS.
Industry Foresters work for their respective companies.  Using an Industrial Forester to write a management plan does not commit the landowner to sell their timber to that company, but is offered as a paid service to private landowners.
