Landowner's Guide to Selling Timber

Join us on Zoom

Thursday, May 14th • 10:30am

Presented by

Dr. Jerry Bettis, Forestry Extension Specialist, Virginia State University

Timber sales can be complex, but forest landowners can make the most of this unique opportunity to generate revenue and achieve ownership goals.

We will discuss important considerations and tips for how to sell your timber, including how to find and select a professional consulting forester to provide you with a wide array of services. These fee-based services can include timber appraisal, harvest planning, timber sale coordination, financial planning for tax purposes and boundary marking.
