Forest Stewardship Workshop: Marketing Your Forest Products--Tried and True and Some Things New

Program: Marketing forest products involves selling timber or other products in a competitive market to get the best return on the investment and/or to meet other objectives. This process requires some planning and pre-sale preparation before advertising or talking to prospective buyers. Timber sales should be approached in a business-like manner to ensure that both the seller and buyer are satisfied with the results. This workshop series will cover the guidelines timberland owners should follow when planning and conducting a sale. We’ll also explore two new forest enterprises that landowners are getting involved with now – carbon and woody biomass.
