The Referral Process - For The Landowner

Should you want to pursue forest management after meeting with Greg (see previous webpage):
  1. Your profile will be confidentially posted to our website for a two-week period during which forest resource professionals will have the opportunity to express interest in your project. Please note that no personal information will be available on the website; only a basic profile and general location of your land will be made available in order to help consultants effectively express interest in your project.
  2. Greg will compile a list of forest resource professionals who have expressed interest in helping you with your specific project and will provide further guidance on working with foresters.  
  3. It is up to the landowner to call the forest resource professionals and choose with whom they would like to work.
  4. Greg will be available to follow up with you, answer any future questions, and help you with future forestry and non-game wildlife-related issues.  ​

Project #:  004-25-0xx   Date Posted: 7/28/25    Date Closing: 8/11/25 5 PM ET   Location: Alpena Co., T32N-R6E             
​
Acres:  40 (total ownership)  Forest Type: Upland coniferous (spruce-fire-aspen)
Work Requested:  This deer camp is enrolled in the Qualified Forest Program and is looking to conduct a timber sale in the next couple of years. Soils are loams, with a conifer-dominated overstory of balsam fir, white spruce, eastern white pine and scattered aspen. Forest products would be a mix of sawtimber and pulpwood. Access to the property and within the property are excellent.

Project #:  006-25-026   Date Posted: 7/21/25    Date Closing: 8/4/25 5 PM ET   
Location: Montmorency Co., T30N-R4E               Acres:  51 (total ownership)  Forest Type: Mixed upland/lowland
Work Requested:  This landowner is enrolled in the Qualified Forest Program and needs a new plan drafted based on the current plan. All paperwork, etc. needs to be in Lansing on or before the end of the calendar year (December 31, 2025). This recreational property had an eastern white pine thinning a few years ago and another thinning in a different part of the stand should occur shortly after the new plan is drafted. Forest products would be mostly sawtimber, with some pulp included. Soils are sand, loamy sand, and complex. Access to the property and within the property are very good.
