Timber Logging
This property also has a significant quantity of "merchantable" timber on it.  We harvested some
timber in 1994 to produce some cash income.  The process involves hiring a Licensed Forester to
"cruise" the property and identify the trees that may be harvested under current legislation.  
Then a Logger is engaged to log, remove and haul the timber to a mill.  
The Logger usually receives 50% of the proceeds as his fee.
