Why should someone work with AFM rather than managing their land themselves?

David Cole, retired Managing Director of Northern Operations: “They become part of a larger team that has the expertise in every area of forest management. There’s always someone available that a forester can rely on to help create a better solution for the client.”

Chuck Mathis, Managing Director of Southern Operations: “Our knowledge. If you don’t sell timber on a daily basis, it’s hard to know what’s going on in the market and what’s changing in the industry. If you don’t know something’s value, it’s hard to know if you’re being treated fairly or getting a good or reasonable price for your timber. Being involved in the market allows us to offer clients a benefit they probably can’t get on their own.”
We would be honored to leverage our knowledge and expertise to help you meet the goals and objectives of your forest land. Reach out to us today to learn more!

This majestic bird is none other than a Great Blue Heron, known for gracefully stalking their prey and slowly moving through the water before striking like lightning. They rely on wetlands for feeding and live in saltwater and freshwater habitats. Great Blue Herons have also benefited from the recovery of beaver populations, as America’s favorite architects have created areas that are well-suited for nesting and foraging.
