Help to Assess Storm Damaged Trees and Forests

Landowners can get professional forestry advice to assess the damage done to their forests and trees. Scott Fischer, the DNR forester for Manitowoc County, will be helping landowners (that own 5 acres of forest land or more) in several ways:

· Assess current damage done to the forest

· Help landowners decide which trees should be salvaged, which can stay

· Help landowners sell damaged trees

· Discuss options for the future of the damaged forests

Scott Fischer can be contacted for an appointment or advice at (920) 755-4984. He has placed this as his top priority and will be bringing in other foresters to help give prompt and professional service to the landowners that have already suffered loss to their forest resource.

It’s important to salvage damaged trees soon, because they will loose value quickly. Call for an appointment today.

A word of warning, please contact a professional forester before you sign a contract with a logger or verbally commit to anything!
