About Stoltzfus Forest Products
Stoltzfus Forest Products is a sawmill and timber buyer based in Peach Bottom, with their mill in Lancaster County. They say it plainly: "We purchase standing timber to process at our sawmill in Lancaster County." They buy Black Walnut, Red Oak, Hickory, Cherry, Yellow Poplar, Red Maple, and White Oak. Their process starts with a phone call, then a visit to walk your property, mark trees, and set a harvest plan. Certified logging crews do the cutting, and the timber goes to their own mill, with lower-grade logs turned into mulch or firewood. They also offer forest management and kiln-dried lumber. Their stated minimum is 50 trees, not an acreage, so there's no acreage figure to go by here. They serve an 80-mile radius from Lancaster County, including York, Lancaster, Chester, Dauphin, Lebanon, Delaware, Montgomery, Bucks, Philadelphia, and Berks Counties in Pennsylvania, plus Cecil, Harford, Baltimore, Kent, Queen Anne's, and Carroll Counties in Maryland. Their forester is a registered forester in the state of Maryland and a member of the Society of American Foresters, and the business holds two Maryland state licenses. They describe "over 90 years of combined forest management experience" among their team. This fits a landowner with 50 or more harvestable trees who wants the whole job done in-house, from marking to milling, rather than hiring a separate consulting forester.

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.
