WOODLOT OF OAK, SUGAR MAPLE, OR BEECH?
Local mushroom farmers seeking woods comprised of small diameter (4" -
10") trees to harvest for log mushroom cultivation.
We will only cut if the activity improves your forest. In exchange for
access to your trees, we will provide a free GPS property map and
assessment of your wood's health, along with recommendations for
ecologically sustainable management. Strategic thinning of young trees
can be beneficial to forest health. If your woods have Oak, Sugar Maple,
or Beach, our intervention may also benefit biodiversity and long term
timber value.
We have years of experience managing small woodlots, are trained in
chainsaw safety, and carry our own insurance.
Access to your woodlot via 4X4 truck is essential. Forests in eastern
Schuyler and western Tompkins counties are preferred.
