Mellette Forestry Group LLC is a forestry consulting firm in Gainesville, Georgia. Morgan Mellette started the consulting business in 1979, and it became Mellette Forestry Group LLC in early 2005. The firm helps landowners reach their goals while keeping the forest productive. Its work includes forest management plans, timber inventories, timber marking and sales, insect, disease and storm damage surveys, wildlife management, invasive species control, reforestation, appraisals, GIS mapping, and forest investment analysis. For a timber sale, the firm walks the land with the owner, cruises the timber to find how much is there and what it is worth, and sends bid invitations to timber buyers within a 50 to 75 mile radius of the property. It opens the bids, helps draft the contract, and supervises the harvest. Timber inventories cover properties from a few acres to thousands. The firm describes itself as "working for the landowner," lists Hall County as an area it serves, and says it has worked for clients throughout the southeast. Absentee owners can have the land checked for gates, boundary lines, and harvesting activity, with a written report and photographs. Morgan Mellette is a Registered Forester in Georgia and South Carolina, a Certified Real Estate Appraiser in Georgia and Florida, and a Member of the Appraisal Institute (MAI). He is also a member of the Society of American Foresters and a past president of the Georgia Chapter of the Association of Consulting Foresters. The firm's listed credentials include certification in Prescribed Burning by the Georgia Forestry Commission. This firm suits a landowner who wants a forester on their side through a timber sale, or an owner who lives far from the land and needs regular checks.

Abba and Sons Custom Millworks, LLC is a mobile sawmill service in Flowery Branch, Georgia, in Barrow County. Its sawyers bring the mill to your land and cut your logs into standard dimensional lumber or custom live edge slabs. The business names Hall County as an area it serves. "Whatever your lumber needs may be, we always strive for precision with every cut." Pricing is set out plainly. There is a $200 mobilization fee and a 3-hour minimum per job at $105 an hour. Projects more than 30 miles away are billed at $1 per mile. The clock starts when the first log touches the mill and stops when the last one comes off. Setup, teardown, lunch and mechanical breakdowns are not billed, but changing blades is. Logs must be no longer than 16 feet and no wider than 3 feet, with all limbs and foreign items such as mud, wire and metal removed. The site should be a firm, fairly level area about 50 by 20 feet. You get a stack of rough sawn lumber, plus waste slabs, bark and sawdust. You do the sticker-stacking yourself to save money, and the business warns that staining can start within days, so stack the boards quickly. It suits a landowner with logs already on the ground who wants them milled on site and is ready to stack and dry the lumber. From abbaandsons.co, read 17 October 2026.
