Woods & Wildlife Forestry
About Woods & Wildlife Forestry
Woods & Wildlife Forestry is a consulting forestry business in Dauphin, Pennsylvania, run by Jeff Eason since 1995. They do tree assessment, timber management, and wildlife management, working with landowners who want their woods cared for and their wildlife habitat kept in mind. The trees they mention working with include poplar, oak, chestnut, cherry, walnut, hardwoods, and ash. When they take on a job, they walk the property with you first to make sure your goals and theirs line up. From there they sign a consulting agreement spelling out what they'll do, mark the timber and boundary lines, line up permits if needed, and manage the bidding and sale between you and a logging company. They say "each job is clearly outlined before the work is started," and they also offer long-term forest management plans and post-harvest clean up. They are listed as an accredited business by BBB. They say they'll work with landowners who have 5 or more acres. Their stated service area covers Dauphin County, along with Perry, York, Lancaster, Berks, and Lebanon counties in Pennsylvania, and customers across Maryland, New York, New Jersey, and Delaware. This fits a landowner who hunts their own land and wants the timber work done with the deer and the habitat in mind, not just the harvest. From woodsnwildlife.com, read 5 October 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? → — 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.
