Testimonials

"Green Timber has done an excellent job managing our hunt club property. They do a great job marketing timber while also enhancing forest health, productivity, and wildlife habitat. They are willing and capable of tackling wildlife habitat improvement projects and are not solely focused on timber and timber management. They communicate well and are transparent so we always know what is going on. Working with Green Timber has been a valuable partnership for our club."

"As a 40-year professional forester and natural resources economist, I had the pleasure of working with Justin Miller on developing a forest carbon offset project. As a full service multidisciplinary professional forestry firm, Green Timber Consulting sets expectations for its clients and consistently performs to those expectations."

"I have had the opportunity to work with Green Timber Consulting on numerous occasions. My experience has been overwhelmingly positive with great communication, sound advice, timely project completion, competitive pricing, and high quality results on each and every project. Green Timber has been a valued partner and contributor to my company's success and we look forward to future projects with them."

"This property has been in the family since my grandparents purchased it in 1950. As a family, we take pride in our stewardship of this forest and seeing it maintained in a healthy and sustainable way. We are pleased to have found and worked with the Green Timber Forestry team in this most recent harvest. Throughout the process GTCF has demonstrated professionalism and a deep knowledge of the process, forestry practices and Michigan commercial forest regulatory environment. We feel the result was a successful harvest from both a financial and forest health perspective and consider this a Win / Win / Win for ourselves, GTCF, and Carey Logging."

"I have had a great experience working with Green Timber over the years, and the growth and improvements your company has demonstrated over that time has increased my confidence that you will remain a valuable partner for years to come."

"Trusting Green Timber to use their expertise to meet our goals allows us to focus our efforts and funding towards our organization's direct outcomes instead of struggling to source expertise from within or spending critical funds on hiring an internal forestry team."

"Our experience with Green Timber Consulting Foresters has been interactive, productive, successful, and most importantly they act like we are part of their family, and they are part of ours. We purchased our forest land and started working with Green Timber on our timber plan. Our mature forest consisted of trees that were 100 years old, as our land was not accessible to modern logging equipment due to very challenging terrain, and property boundaries. Green Timber educated us on the proper way to begin to manage our forest, and we followed their suggestions."

"I am a private landowner in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and have used Green timber Foresters on several logging projects. We did several select cuts and improvement cuts for which they marked appropriate trees for harvest and for improvement culling. I appreciate that they are paid for time spent and are not incentivized to overharvest at the expense of subsequent timber sales. They are prompt, personable, and professionally excellent, acting as the intermediary between myself and the loggers, to obtain the best possible outcome, both aesthetically now and maximum high grade yield for the future. I could not recommend them more highly."

"It's a pleasure to give Green Timber Consulting Foresters a "5 Star" rating for their spot-on professional services, communication and follow through, negotiations with loggers and planters, and close supervision of our project. In 2008 and 2009, the U.P. and upper Michigan experienced severe forest fires. Our property consists of 12 acres composed mostly of Jack Pine trees which are highly susceptible to fire due a short life span. Justin met with all neighbors individually and then as a group to develop an agreeable plan. The landowners chose to harvest all or most of the Jack Pine to halt the fire danger issue. We couldn't be happier. Our homes and property are safer from fire and our new forest is more picturesque."

"Green Timber Consulting Foresters, Inc. prepared the management plan for our 132 acre Family Forest, working with us toward our vision for multiple use. They managed timber sales on it and another property, and assisted in finding a new owner for a 40 acre parcel we wanted to sell. They were very professional, ensuring logging was executed and documented properly and keeping us updated. We recommend them to anyone with forest lands needing sound management."

"With Green Timbers help, we were approved for a Management Plan Grant that allowed us to harvest about 50% of the land. We kept the cedar and the wetlands intact, and saved all the oak and pines, harvesting all the remaining species of trees as appropriate. This is already allowing sunlight to get to the forest floor and the regeneration from the stumps is taking place. There will now be food for animals and birds on the property for years to come. It is a pleasure to walk and explore our land and connect by surprise with the Grouse and the Deer. We are extremely pleased with Green Timber and their team of Foresters! We recommend them to all that visit our property.

"We have been using Green Timber for almost 10 years to help us manage our forest. They are very professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. We highly recommend them!"

"Green Timber Forestry has cruised over 130,000 acres on our client’s Lake States properties over the past 10 years. They have never missed a deadline; they are very adept at data handling and have passed independent third-party audits with flying colors. They are a pleasure to work with."

"I have worked with Green Timber Forestry for several years and they have always exceeded my expectations and accomplished all my goals. Justin has put together a team of Foresters that are capable of any type of timber management or land consulting needs. They stay on top of all the newest technology and information so you can get the best prices for your timber and management plans for the future. It was a pleasure to use the new drone system they have implemented to make several videos of my property. I can strongly recommend Green Timber for all of your forestry needs."

"I signed a contract with Green Timber to evaluate our 160-acre property and arrange for a timber sale. 70-80 acres were cut in the winter of 2018/19. Green Timber is a professional company who has a forester on the ground counting the lumber and ensuring that the logger follows the timber plan. Communication was outstanding from start to finish and I received more money than anticipated. The land looked rough after the initial cut, but by the fall of 2020, the forest is already back up 6-8ft. with deer everywhere. The deer had been on a severe decline prior to this due to lack of food, cover and heavy wolf-presence, but now we are seeing an abundance of deer and other wildlife. Green Timber is bonded and offers an extremely professional experience for customers complete with after-care. I know of two people who went with other companies and did not receive any money after their cut due to unprofessional/not-bonded practices. This is unfortunately more common than you would think, so the fee that Green Timber charges is a great insurance policy to guarantee you will receive your money with professional services. I would highly recommend Green Timber if you are looking for a timber plan for your property or to have your timber harvested."

"I would like to thank Green Timber for actively managing the logger and logging process on our property. They kept us updated via e-mail throughout the process and we enjoyed the in-person post-harvest tour of the property. They answered all our questions, provided a great overview of the process and results, and helped guide us to every corner of the property we were interested in seeing on the tour. We particularly appreciate them arranging for the mosquitoes, ticks, and other insect pests to take the day off and mostly vacate the property. Not sure how they did that, but very grateful. "
