About Ferrucci & Walicki LLC
Ferrucci & Walicki LLC is a forestry consulting firm based in Middlefield, Connecticut. They work as the landowner's agent, not as a buyer of standing timber themselves. Their main work is developing forest management or stewardship plans, running timber sales, and enrolling land in tax reduction programs like Connecticut's PA 490 or Massachusetts Chapter 61/61B. They also handle mapping, invasive species control, wildlife habitat work, recreation planning, education, and utility land management. On a timber sale, their foresters mark the trees to be removed and set their value, lay out any forest roads needed, get the permits, draw up the contract between the landowner and the buyer, and oversee the job from start to finish. They "work on an hourly basis, not on a commission or percentage or revenue," which means their pay does not depend on how much wood comes off your land. They cover the Lower Connecticut River Valley Planning Region, and more broadly Connecticut and Massachusetts. Their foresters are Connecticut Certified Foresters, with a Licensed Forester in Massachusetts and a USDA-NRCS Technical Service Provider on staff, and they belong to the Society of American Foresters. They have been managing forestland in Connecticut and Massachusetts since 1982. This fits a landowner who wants someone acting purely on their side of the table during a sale, paid by the hour rather than a cut of the timber, and who may also want help with tax programs or longer-term forest planning rather than just a one-time cut.

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.
