Together, the two companies will manage over 550,000 acres in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Northern Wisconsin, and Michigan’s Northern Lower Peninsula. The collective staff of 17 professional foresters has over 200 years of experience in forest management, timber harvest administration, GIS, forest inventory, forest modeling and analysis, and certification auditing.
