TEMPLIN FORESTRY INC
About TEMPLIN FORESTRY INC
Templin Forestry, Inc. is an Alexandria, Louisiana consulting forestry firm that says on its own site it has "been providing superior, responsive forestry management services, along with resource analysis, consulting, and appraisals since 1984," the year Steven Templin bought out the Louisiana Division of Davis Forestry of Monticello, Arkansas. The site describes work in timber sales and marketing, reforestation, forest analysis, appraisals and long-term management plans, and says that because the firm is "independent from any timber buying operations" it can market and administer a landowner's timber sale to optimize the owner's return. It reports having planted more than 40 million pine and hardwood seedlings for Louisiana landowners over the last 40 years, describes itself as a certified Technical Service Provider (TSP) for the NRCS, and says it operates as a licensed drone operator for mapping and photography. Owner Steven Templin is described as a Certified Forester (CF) and a Fellow of the Society of American Foresters who has earned the ACF designation and the SAF Presidential Field Forester award, and is a Louisiana State Certified General Appraiser and Licensed Real Estate Broker. The firm also runs a Louisiana licensed real estate brokerage whose site lists timberland and rural tracts for sale; those for-sale listings are property inventory rather than jobs performed, and no minimum tract size for the firm's forestry services is stated on the site. As described on templinforestry.com, read 23 September 2026.
