Did you know that there’s an alien invasion righ Did you know that there’s an alien invasion right here in Wisconsin? Instead of little green men, it's little green plants! 

Our most common terrestrial invasives include honeysuckle, japanese barberry, buckthorn, multiflora rose, garlic mustard, autumn olive and that's just naming a few. It's important that we take steps to prevent the spread of these species and protect our environment. Remember to clean your equipment and gear before moving between properties, dispose of plants and animals properly. #invasivespecies #protectourecosystems #Wisconsin #environmentalconservation

Have you thought about selling timber? Here's a qu Have you thought about selling timber? Here's a quick rundown of the timber sales process:

1. Find a Forester: Schedule a property walk-through and meeting with a professional forester to determine the viability of a timber sale. 
2. Inventory Timber: Have the forester cruise your property to estimate the volume of harvestable timber. 
3. Establish the timber sale: Once you've determined your woods are ready to be harvested, the forester will mark and sell the timber to reputable timber buyers and loggers in your area who practice responsible harvesting methods.
4. Contract the Harvest: Ensure you have a written agreement with the buyer of your timber. The agreement should outline the terms of the sale, the harvesting plan, and the payment schedule.

By following these steps, you can ensure a smooth and profitable timber sale while promoting responsible forest management. Don't forget to research and choose a reputable forester who shares your commitment to sustainability.

Are you a landowner looking to hire a forester? He Are you a landowner looking to hire a forester?
Here are a few things to keep in mind when you’re looking to hire a forester to develop and implement a harvest plan for your property.

1. Experience and Expertise: A good forester will have years of practical forestry experience in the industry and expertise in the type of forest management you require.
2. Reputation: Word of mouth is the best form of advertising. Research the forester’s reputation by looking for feedback from previous clients, checking references and talking with your local DNR forester.
3. Communication: Make sure the forester is easy to communicate with, and they listen to your needs and preferences.
4. Fees: Not all foresters are created equal. Some work as Full-Time consulting foresters, others work part-time and have other full time jobs and others are industrial (procurement) foresters working on behalf of a wood buying mill.  All foresters price their work differently. Many differences in price can be linked to the level of detail and commitment they can provide, along with years of experience and/or expertise and the area of the state they serve. You can learn more about different types of foresters here >> What Foresters Do: https://mywisconsinwoods.org/questions/timber-harvesting/forester-vs-loggers/what-foresters-do/
5. Professional Associations & Affiliations:  Check to see which organizations your forester belongs to. Common professional forestry associations & organizations include: Society of American Foresters (SAF), Wisconsin Consulting Foresters (WCF), Association of Consulting Foresters (ACF), Forest Industry Safety & Training Alliance (FISTA). 
6. Insurance: Check to see that your forester (or any contractor working on your land for that matter) has the proper insurance in place to protect you and themselves in the event that something happens. 

By following these tips, you can find a qualified and trustworthy forester to help you manage your property well.
