Custom Cut Opportunities
Scott Zimmerman is organizing custom cuts all this summer. The current opportunity is for FSC certified logs, particularly large and oversized. If you are interested at all we encourage you to give us a call, even if you aren’t currently FSC certified. Many small landowners meet FSC standards already, and only need official certification. Along with Trout Mountain Forestry we can help do this easily and economically.

We are about ¾ of the way through the grant period and have done an outstanding job generating the in-kind necessary to qualify for funds.
Please don’t let-up now! We have another $23,000 available to us if we generate enough in-kind.
We need to make sure your in-kind gets matched with the appropriate task, so give us a call when you’re filling out your forms to make sure it gets in the right category. |
