Metcalfe Forestry Co. is a fully insured and registered forest consulting company based out of Grayling, Michigan. We currently employ a staff of two professional foresters, a full time office manager. and are affiliated with other forestry specialists throughout the USA.

We have worked for logging companies, private landowners, hunt clubs, non-profit organizations, and have done extensive contract work for the Michigan DNR, USDA Forest Service, Bureau of Indian Affairs, various forest industries and other consulting forester's since 1998. Having worked cruising & marking on most Michigan DNR districts, we understand how the state determines timber volume and can estimate how much overrun or under run to expect.

 

Much of our work involves setting up and selling timber sales, which requires extensive knowledge of forest ecosystems, timber values, and inventory methods.

If you are getting bank loans on you timberlands, make sure your bank knows the true asset value (timber value along with bare land value). Make sure you are not over collateralized. Ensure you are not paying too much tax and file your timber taxes correctly with us. We are affiliated with Burns Timber Tax Services and are able to give you large tax savings on your federal and state income tax.
