Bartek Forestry
About Bartek Forestry
Bartek Forestry is a forestry consulting business in Arkansas. The owner graduated from Stephen F Austin State Univ. with a BS in Forestry back in 1997 and has worked in forestry ever since. The work covers aerial photography, management plans, stewardship plans, and site prep and reforestation. Bartek Forestry can also do aerial reconnaissance timber damage assessment using drone technology. The owner says he has "seen both sides of the timber industry from private landowner mgmt aspects to timber buyer methods" and has learned "tricks on how timber buyers trick landowners out of thousands and thousands dollars," with the stated goal of helping the landowner get the most from their timber, whether for capital or wildlife. Bartek Forestry is an Arkansas Registered Forester and a Society of American Foresters Certified Forester, and belongs to the Arkansas Forestry Associations, the Associations of Consulting Foresters of America, and the Society of American Foresters. The area served covers Clark, Columbia, Hempstead, Howard, Lafayette, Little River, Miller, Montgomery, Nevada, Ouachita, Pike, Polk, Sevier, and Union counties. This fits a landowner in that part of Arkansas who wants a consultant watching the timber sale from the landowner's side of the table, not the buyer's.
Can they handle a timber sale?
Selling standing timber properly takes three things. Here's what the state register credits this firm with.
Timber AppraisalAn estimate of what your standing timber is worth in dollars, based on how much there is, its quality, and current prices. When you are selling, settling an estate, dividing property, or need a value for taxes or insurance.What does this mean? → — not listed
works out what your standing timber is worth
Timber Cruise & Volume EstimateA field measurement of your standing trees — their species, sizes, and quality — that adds up to how much wood you actually have. Before you sell, so you go in knowing roughly what is out there rather than taking a buyer's word for it.What does this mean? → — not listed
measures and grades what's actually out there
Timber Sale & Contract AdministrationRunning the sale for you: advertising the timber, taking bids, writing the contract, and overseeing the logging so the agreed terms are met. When you want someone on your side handling the whole sale rather than dealing with buyers and loggers yourself.What does this mean? → — not listed
runs the sale and handles the contract
This firm isn't credited with all three, which doesn't make it a worse forester — plenty specialise in management planning, wildlife or wetlands. It does mean that if your goal is to sell timber, you'd likely need someone else for the part that's missing.
