Abbott Forestry Services, LLC is a forestry consulting business in Arkansas. The person behind it is a fourth generation landowner who manages timberland and says the work grew out of wanting to know how to handle their own family's timber investment and estate. They take on appraisals, financial analysis, management plans, stewardship plans, timber cruising, timber marking and marketing, painting boundary lines, site prep and reforestation, and wildlife management. That covers a lot of ground, from putting a number on standing timber to planning a harvest to helping with what comes after, like replanting. They also mention timberland valuation, GIS mapping, and hunting property design as areas of focus. The company holds an Arkansas Registered Forester credential and belongs to the Arkansas Forestry Association, the Association of Consulting Foresters of America, and the Society of American Foresters, along with a real estate appraiser credential. Their motto sums up the approach: "Traditional wisdom, modern vision." Arkansas has a long list of counties covered, including Pulaski, Washington, Garland, Saline, Pope, White, and dozens more across the state, so landowners in most parts of Arkansas could reach them. This fits a landowner who wants someone grounded in family land experience as much as forestry training, especially if estate planning or long-term management is part of the picture alongside a straightforward timber sale.

Golden Oak Forestry, based in Russellville, is a forestry consulting business owned by Tim and Karen White.

Species mentioned include shortleaf pine, white oak, willow oak, sweetgum, post oak, red oak, and overcup oak. On a sale, they mark timber for selective harvest or delineate areas for complete harvest, obtain bids, execute the timber sale contract or deed, and work with the harvest operation. As Tim puts it, "we have no other interest involved other than our client's interest," since they are not timber buyers themselves, and sales usually run "through a competitive bidding process." They cover a long list of counties across Arkansas, including Washington, Benton, Pope, Pulaski, Saline, and Madison, among others. Golden Oak says it has "inventoried properties as small as 10 acres," so that is the floor to expect for that kind of work. Their timber sale listings include a 25 acre bid sale and a 35 acre hardwood tract, the Bull Tract, so smaller sale jobs have been handled too. This fits a landowner who wants someone to run the whole sale process on their behalf, from marking to bids to contract, rather than deal directly with a buyer or logger.

The firm serves Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana. It says its managed properties range from under 20 acres up to tens of thousands of acres, so a small tract is still within reach.

They describe themselves as "a small company doing big things," which fits with offering this broad a menu of services from one outfit. This one suits a landowner who wants a single firm to handle the timber work and the land appraisal or sale together, rather than hiring separate people for each piece.

Stevens Forestry Service, Inc is a forestry consulting firm based in El Dorado, Arkansas, with an office in Louisiana too. They've been at this since 1950, and the staff brings "over 150 years of combined forestry experience" between registered foresters, a licensed real estate broker, and registered appraisers. They handle complete forest management on pine, hardwood, mixed pine hardwood, and bottomland hardwood tracts. When it's time to sell your timber, they market it either as lump sum sealed bids or pay-as-cut, whichever fits your tract and what you want out of it. They send prospectuses out to mills and wood producers to find buyers, and their foresters check in on harvesting operations to make sure the logging crew is sticking to the contract and following best practices. Beyond timber sales they also do timberland appraisals (following USPAP guidelines), real estate brokerage for land sales, management plans, timber cruising, boundary marking, firebreaks, site prep and reforestation, and wildlife management. They also fly their own fixed-wing aircraft for aerial inspections, which they say is handy for checking on fire, storm, or insect damage. No stated minimum acreage, but the smallest tract they've shown for sale is 25 acres in Columbia County, Arkansas, so smaller parcels seem to be within reach. They cover a long list of counties across Arkansas, from Benton and Washington down to Union and Chicot, plus work into Louisiana. This fits a landowner with a sizable tract, pine or hardwood, who wants one outfit that can run the timber sale, handle the paperwork, and also talk land value or a future sale if that's part of the plan.

Arkansas Pulpwood Co is a forestry company in Camden, Arkansas. They buy timber, run the logging themselves, and also do consulting work, including appraisals, for landowners in Ouachita County. The work they take on covers timber harvesting, timber merchandising, timberland appraisal, and timber and timberland management. On a harvest, they say they handle "every stage of the operation, from evaluating the timber stand and coordinating logging crews to overseeing equipment, transportation logistics, and mill delivery." For merchandising, they work directly with mills and buyers to market timber, negotiate pricing, and manage contracts. For appraisal work, they have an in-house registered timber and timberland appraiser, useful if you need a valuation for a sale, an estate, or just to know what you have. There's no stated minimum acreage for a timber job. The smallest property shown on their site is a 6.11 acre parcel, the Carrie Newton tract, but that one is listed as a land lease in Union County, not a timber sale, so it doesn't tell you their floor for timber work. The company was founded by John Dawson Jr. in 1973 and has stayed family-owned since, now with the second generation leading and a third generation involved. This fits a landowner in Ouachita County who wants one company to handle buying, logging, and appraisal together, rather than hiring each piece separately. From arkpulpwood.com, read 3 October 2026.

Questions landowners ask
How many forestry consultants are there in Arkansas?
71 are listed on TimberClear, sourced from the Arkansas forestry register, covering 74 counties between them.
How do I choose between them?
Start local and get more than one. A business based in your county knows the mills and the ground; one registered for all one hundred counties may be three hours away. Every listing here shows how far its office is from the county you are looking at, so "will travel" is never mistaken for "is local". TimberClear has not vetted, verified or endorsed anybody on this site.
