Woodsmen Forestry
About Woodsmen Forestry
Surveying is the unusual one on the register here. Most firms on it cruise timber; this one also runs boundary lines, so a disputed corner and a volume estimate can be handled on the same visit. Coverage is eighteen counties across the southern piedmont and into the Sandhills, from Union and Mecklenburg east through Montgomery and Moore to Harnett and Robeson, and the registered list of sixteen services takes in appraisal, cruising and sale administration alongside prescribed burning, herbicide application and wildlife management, with registration 1686 held by Jeff Boothby. The firm's own site shows something larger than a single-forester entry. Woodsmen Forestry, whose standing line is managing timberland with integrity since 2010 and which appears in one staff biography as Woodsmen Forestry, PLLC, names three people and two offices: Boothby as president and chief executive at the home office at 102 South Greene Street in Wadesboro; Lewis B. Evans, who joined in 2015 as vice president after a career in insurance; and Gregory Allen, mountain region and timber sales director, a registered forester in North Carolina since 2012 and in South Carolina since 2014 who spent ten years in timber procurement before joining, and whose mountain region office at 266 Oak Avenue in Spruce Pine opened in 2021. The firm calls its offering Timber Wealth Management and says its management base covers tens of thousands of acres in the Carolinas, Virginia and parts of eastern Tennessee. Published services include forest management consultation, sealed-bid and negotiated timber sales, timber appraisals for real estate investing, North Carolina present-use tax plans, forest stewardship plans, tree planting and site preparation planning, state and federal cost-share assistance, GPS and GIS mapping, timber investment planning, invasive species control and wildlife habitat improvement. On sales it describes a turnkey service covering planning, marketing, pre-harvest preparation, logger oversight, cleanup, settlements and replanting, and says it is paid out of what the landowner is paid. A separate exports and industrial division works on procurement and export marketing for forest products facilities. As described on woodsmenforestry.com, read 23 September 2026.
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? →
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? →
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? →
runs the sale and handles the contract
