Why Hire a Local Forestry Consultant

A forestry consultant is your trusted advisor for all things related to forest management. We will listen to your objectives and present management options based in science. An experienced forester should hold a broad knowledge of ecosystems dynamics, silvicultural systems, plant physiology, forest insects and disease, wildlife biology, fire science, statistics and natural resource economics. The ability to apply this knowledge in light of a client’s objectives in the most sustainable, resourceful, economical and timely manner is the measure of a good forestry consultant. It is also where the true “art” of forestry shines through.

Why Hire Spring Branch Forestry?
Why Hire Us?

“In 2011 Austin Shelby provided turn-key consulting services to improve an undeveloped, heavily wooded, 40 acre parcel I own in north Ouray County, CO.  Austin created a forest improvement plan including designing, mapping, and supervising work to thin trees, reseed, and create wildlife habitats.  This served to vastly improve the forest health and create fire safety zones.  The property is now a beautiful showcase of natural grasses, wildflowers, and healthy trees.  Austin is a true professional.  It was a pleasure working with him.”
