About Blackwell Creek Forestry
Blackwell Creek Forestry is a forestry consulting business in Chillicothe, Kansas, at 14435 LIV 251. If you've got trees on your land and don't know where to start, this is the kind of outfit you'd call: they offer to "Let an expert guide you to your goals" and said their place is to help you make sense of a timber sale. Their work covers forest and woodland management, wildlife habitat management, fire and prescribed burning, GIS and mapping, training, and expert witness work. On the timber sale side, they describe their role as managing and supervising your sale "to protect your interests," marketing the timber, and working to minimize taxes on the deal. They carry the ACF credential, which is the forestry profession's consulting certification. There's no stated minimum acreage and no listed service area or species, so if you're close to Chillicothe it's worth a call to ask directly whether your parcel and your trees fit what they do. This fits a landowner who wants someone standing between them and the buyer during a sale, not just a name to call once the trees are already marked.

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.
