Maryland Industrial & Private Consultant Foresters

Lists maintained by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources. One of the objectives of the forestry profession is to assist landowners in making informed decisions about the management of their forests before implementing harvesting activities. With the help of professional forest managers, the goals and objectives of landowners can be blended between the environmental and economic values each woodland is capable of producing. To that end, and to be able to assist as many landowners seeking professional forestry services as possible, state service foresters will refer to private consulting and industrial foresters those aspects of forest resource management that can support themselves without public assistance.
