Georgia Forestry Commission is a state agency based in Milledgeville, Georgia. It is not a logging crew or a timber buyer. It gives forest management advice, including management plans, timber sales and harvest advice, timber security, reforestation, taxes and estate planning, and prescribed burns. It serves Georgia, and Baldwin County is among the counties it names. To look into a timber sale, the agency asks landowners to reach its "your local GFC forester" by phone or in person, and it suggests hiring a consulting forester and a separate timber buyer or harvester when you sell. A timber hotline is available at 1-(800) GA-TREES (428-7337). The agency also notes that timber prices shift with the time of year and with each tract and its timber. It carries a Georgia Master Timber Harvester certification, and it is certified by the Georgia Peace Officers Standards and Training Council. This suits a landowner who wants planning and sale advice from a state agency and plans to bring in a separate logger or buyer for the cutting. From gatrees.org, read 17 October 2026.

Georgia Power is an independent logger based in Milledgeville, Georgia. Its trade is logging, which means cutting and removing trees for sale. It works in Baldwin County, which is the only county it serves, and holds Georgia Master Timber Harvester certification. Take care with the name. Georgia Power is also the name of a large electric utility headquartered in Atlanta, and that company is not this logging business. Keep the two apart when you look for a phone number or an address, since the utility's contact details belong to a different company. It suits a Baldwin County landowner who wants a logger holding Georgia Master Timber Harvester certification and who would rather confirm the business's details directly, by name and address in Milledgeville, before any cutting is agreed.

Rayonier is a corporate land company based in Milledgeville, Georgia. It is filed here under independent loggers, but it is not a small logging outfit. The business calls itself a land resources Real Estate Investment Trust, trades on the NYSE as RYN, and says it owns over 4 million acres across the United States. Its southern timberlands cover 3.154 million acres in eight states, Georgia among them. They grow loblolly, slash, shortleaf and longleaf pine, plus oak, maple, poplar and hickory. The business holds the Georgia Master Timber Harvester certification and serves Baldwin County. It says it harvests only 3 to 4 percent of its timberland acreage each year, using standard equipment on flat ground and cable systems on steep slopes. As its forest management pages put it, "Healthy forests don’t happen by accident." It does not offer timber buying or logging services to outside landowners. Its timber goes to its own mills and to outside customers. This business suits a landowner who wants to understand large corporate timberland, not one looking for a logger or timber buyer for a small woodlot. From rayonier.com, read 4 October 2026.

Questions landowners ask

How many timber buyers and foresters serve Baldwin County?

19 businesses are listed for Baldwin County: 6 consulting foresters and 13 buyers, loggers and mills. 19 of them have offices in the county.

How much is my timber worth in Baldwin County?

Nobody can tell you what your timber is worth without walking it. Value depends on the species, the size and grade of the trees, how thickly they stand, the ground conditions and how easily a logger can reach them. University of Georgia Extension publishes an annual timber situation and outlook report with recent quarterly figures, which tells you what the market is doing, not what your tract holds. Anyone who quotes you a figure without seeing the land is guessing, and a guess in that direction is rarely in your favour.

Do I need a forestry consultant to sell timber in Baldwin County?

You do not have to use one. A consulting forester works for you rather than the buyer, marks the timber, runs a sealed-bid sale and typically charges a percentage of the sale. Research from several state extension services has found that timber sold through a consultant often returns enough more to cover the fee, though results vary by tract and by market. The decision usually turns on the size of the sale and whether you have sold timber before.

Do I need a permit to cut timber in Georgia?

Georgia has no statewide permit for cutting timber on your own land, and state law forbids a county to require one or to charge a fee for a timber harvest notification. What a county may require is the notification itself: where its ordinance calls for one, the harvester files it before entering the property if possible and no later than 24 hours after entering, and the county may ask for a bond of up to $5,000 against damage to its roads. Not every county has an ordinance, so check with yours before work starts. Georgia's Best Management Practices are not a permit programme, but following them is how a harvest stays clear of the water-quality law that is enforceable.

What is timber worth in Baldwin County?

No price series is published for Baldwin County on its own. Georgia's latest published stumpage figures (University of Georgia Extension, Q3 2025) put mixed hardwood sawtimber at $26–$32 per ton. What your own timber brings depends on the species, the size and amount of it, and how far it is from a mill. A timber cruise by a forester settles it.
