Who We Are
ForestWild Consultants LLC is a professional forestry and wildlife consulting firm headquartered in Florence, Alabama. We bring hands-on expertise in timber management, wildlife habitat enhancement, and land stewardship across the hardwood and pine forests of the Southeast.
“Across my career I’ve managed properties from 20 acres to 640,000 acres — family farms, institutional timberland, trust properties, military land. Every one of them was different. Every landowner had different goals. What stays the same is our approach: we look through your lens, not ours. We determine what your land needs to achieve your vision — and where that vision is still taking shape, we help bring it into focus.”
What We Do
Comprehensive forest management plans tailored to your land's species composition, soil types, and ownership goals. Timber stand improvement, reforestation, and long-range planning.
Prescribed burning plans and timber stand improvement treatments to reduce fuels, control competition, improve wildlife habitat, and restore open woodland structure.
Seedling procurement, planting supervision, site preparation recommendations, and post-planting monitoring for pine, hardwood, and native species plantings.
Timber markets across the Southeast have been challenging and unpredictable over the past decade — and we won’t pretend otherwise. Every tract is different. The species, volume, product mix, and location all determine whether the timing is right for a sale and what that sale is likely to return.
Our job is to give you an honest assessment. If your property has what it takes for a successful timber sale today, we’ll tell you — and we’ll go get you the best price the market will offer. If the timing isn’t right, we’ll be straight with you about that too, and we’ll put a plan in place to improve the stand, build value, and position your timber for a stronger sale when the market and your property are both ready.
What we won’t do is push you into a sale that doesn’t serve your interests.

Why ForestWild
We're not a national firm sending a stranger to walk your land. ForestWild Consultants is your neighbor — we understand the soils, the timber markets, the wildlife patterns, and the culture of the Southern forestlands we work in.
Every acre is different. Every landowner has different goals. We listen first, then build a management strategy that reflects your land's true potential.
On-the-ground assessments, not generic prescriptions. We walk your property and study your land before recommending anything.
As consultants, we work for you — not for timber buyers, mills, or vendors. You receive objective guidance that serves your interests.
We integrate timber, wildlife, water, aesthetics, and recreational values into unified plans — because healthy forests deliver on every front.
Navigating USDA programs, state forestry incentives, and environmental regulations so you capture every available benefit.
