Nice video. We have just over 200 acres with about 1/4 of it covered by dying beech. Not too bad of a winter job with our little tj205 and forwarding trailer. All of it goes to firewood except for a few nice saw logs for our mill. What I struggle with is the spruce and fir that need to come down because it's in the way. It's all too small for our mill but could probably go to the larger industrial sawmill in the area. What is your strategy to market your spruce and fir? cheers

Not sure where you are located, but around here there are several industrial mills or concentration yards within striking distance. So we sell directly to the mill. They are high production facilities that take small wood (minimum is a 10'6" 4" top log). Thanks for the comment. Good luck forestering!

The fir is scattered here, but some of it does need to be cut. I did pick up some when cutting the poplar, but the skidder stays local so will be back eventually.

In one way it's sad to see the tree cut down. But I know we need it. Many years to grow, and only seconds to cut it down. I use to work with wood and I truly appreciate the beauty of the wood when a project is finished. 👍 .

do you guys have a local mill you bring your pine too? hard to sell right now in VT

@GoodWoodTJ208 3 ай бұрын

There are several larger pine mills here in Maine and in Quebec. This will go to a local yard that will then sell them to one of these mills. The market here is similar to what you describe in VT though. The mills are full of logs and their lumber prices seem to be dropping. I would NOT be cutting pine right now if they hadn't blown over...just hoping to move this volume to get it cleaned up! Thanks for the comment.
