Stewardship-driven land planning, habitat design, and aerial mapping for New England landowners.
We work with landowners and conservation-minded clients on the decisions that shape habitat, timber, access, and the future of a property.
Effective habitat isn't built from a template. We walk the property, study how animals are using it, and design around wind, pressure, bedding, and access, creating layouts that continue to work under real hunting pressure year after year.
For hunters, habitat-focused landowners & recreational properties →A lot of New England woodlots have been selectively cut or left unmanaged long enough that the next owner inherits someone else's decisions. We help clients understand what they have, identify long-term value within the stand, and improve woodland health through thoughtful planning, selective improvement, and stewardship-minded decision making.
Full services overview →Long-term planning that brings habitat, timber, access, and land use into alignment so improvements made today continue to support the property years down the road. The goal is a property that remains healthy, usable, and adaptable over time, not one shaped around short-term decisions.
For landowners, recreational properties & conservation-minded clients →Most work falls into two categories. Both start the same way. We walk the ground and figure out what the property can actually do.
Whether you're managing a family woodlot, improving hunting on your own ground, or thinking about timber value and what to pass down, we help you figure out what to do first, what to hold off on, and why the sequence matters.
Land-heavy projects go smoother when access, layout, and owner expectations are sorted before machines show up. We support contractors on site layout, clearing decisions, and owner-facing coordination.
23 Timber Co. is built around one idea: good land decisions come from understanding the ground, not just reading it on a screen. We combine forestry, habitat design, and real field experience across northern hardwood and mixed-wood stands.
The work is practical. Plans are built around realistic budgets, honest tradeoffs, and what you can actually execute. Not what looks good in a report.
