Timber Buyers & Forestry Professionals in Howe, IN

Michiana Timber and Tree works out of Shipshewana, Indiana. They handle timber management, tree removal and storm cleanup, pruning and hazard tree assessments, lot clearing, and they run a portable sawmill for custom lumber on-site. They work with walnut, other hardwoods, and softwoods, and they also sell hardwood firewood. On timber jobs, they start with a walk-through of your woods to check tree health, then everything gets "mapped, marked, and measured" before any cutting starts. They do a salvage cut first to clear out low-quality trees, then move to selective harvest that leaves the better timber standing for later. They mark, cut, and market the logs themselves rather than farming that out, and you can sell to them directly or have them market the timber on your behalf. They serve Shipshewana and LaGrange County, along with Elkhart, Goshen, Warsaw, Kendallville, Columbia City, Fort Wayne, Auburn, Middlebury, South Bend, and into Sturgis, Coldwater, and Three Rivers in Michigan. They say they're "licensed, bonded, and insured" and have been doing this since 2004, so over 20 years. There's no stated minimum acreage. One landowner described a job this way: "Michiana Tree helped us select and harvest trees from our wooded acreage," which gives a sense of the scale they'll take on, though it wasn't a plot of a stated size. This fits a landowner in LaGrange County or nearby who wants one outfit to walk the woods, mark the harvest, cut it, and handle the mill or firewood end too, without bringing in separate contractors for each step.
