Is it wildlife, recreation, timber, or even a park-like setting?  Maybe some of each?  Depending on your goals, different trees may need to be harvested.  A forester is trained to select the right trees for your intended goals.  For example, if producing both income and a good habitat for wildlife is a primary goal, a forester can design a harvest that will promote the future growth of higher value trees.<\/p>\n<h3>Inventory Your Woods<\/h3>\n<p>Having an inventory of your woods is like having an appraisal of your home&#8217;s value.  It&#8217;s a key part of knowing your overall financial worth.<\/p>\n<h3>Keep Your Woods Healthy<\/h3>\n<p>Taking note of what you want your woods to look like, and the benefits it will provide now and in the future, provides a road map towards a healthier woodlot.<\/p>\n<h3>Working Together<\/h3>\n<p>A harvest plan designed and carried out by a knowledgeable forester working with a trained logger will help assure that the harvest meets your needs as a landowner.  Planting more trees, removing invasive species, or conducting a harvest are just a few of the activities that might make up such a plan.<\/p>\n<h3>Select Trees Carefully<\/h3>\n<p>When a tree should be cut depends on many things, such as its age and maturity, its contribution to your woods&#8217; health, the market price of different timbers, and your own goals and needs.  Make sure that your &#8220;select cut&#8221; is based on all these things and not just the current value of the tree.<\/p>\n<h3>Protect Your Interests<\/h3>\n<p>Market your timber properly to ensure you receive a fair value and oversee the implementation of your harvest carefully so your land is not damaged.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Know Your Objectives Determine what you want your woodlands to provide.
