About Ferrucci & Walicki, LLC
Ferrucci & Walicki, LLC is a forestry consulting firm based in Middlefield, Connecticut. They've been managing forestland in Connecticut and Massachusetts since 1982, and have worked across southern New England for three decades. Their work covers forest management and stewardship plans, timber sale administration, and enrollment in property tax reduction programs such as Connecticut's PA 490 and Massachusetts Chapter 61/61B. They also do mapping, invasive species control, wildlife habitat enhancement, recreation planning, education, and land management for utilities. On a timber sale, their foresters "act as the landowner's agent." They mark the trees to be removed and set their value, lay out where forest roads will go, get the needed permits, write up the contract between the landowner and the buyer, and oversee the operation from start to finish. They "work on an hourly basis, not on a commission or percentage or revenue," so their pay isn't tied to how much timber gets marked or sold. Staff credentials include Connecticut Certified Forester status, a Massachusetts forester's license, USDA-NRCS Technical Service Provider status, and membership in the Society of American Foresters. They work with private landowners, municipalities, utilities, and land trusts, handling properties that range from small holdings up to parcels of many thousands of acres. This suits a landowner who wants a forester paid by the hour rather than by a cut of the wood, to handle the whole timber sale on their behalf. From fwforesters.com, read 10 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.
