Currier Farms Forest Products LLC, also known as Currier Forest Products, is a sawmill and timber buyer in Danville, Vermont. The family calls itself "Stewards of Vermont's Northern Forest for Six Generations," and they run their own sawmill in the Northeast Kingdom, controlling the wood from standing timber to finished board. They work in Birch, Cherry, Eastern Hemlock, Eastern White Pine, Maple, Red Spruce Tonewood, Spruce-Fir, Tamarack, and Eastern White Cedar, along with spalted wood. Their timbers run up to 60 feet long, 24 inches wide, and 24 inches thick, with S4S finishing available. Rather than keeping a fixed price list or shelf stock, they mill to a customer's specs: "custom milling based on your specs," whether that is book matched grain for a table top, live-edge planks, or a special profile for flooring, trim, or siding. If they don't have the raw material on hand, they say they can "sustainably harvest the wood for the products you need" and finish the job at their own mill. Their wood carries FSC certification. They serve Caledonia County and deliver throughout New England and New York, including New Hampshire, Maine, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Vermont, with third-party trucking available to the rest of the continental US. This fits a landowner with standing timber whose trees match what Currier works in, especially anyone whose wood might end up as flooring, framing timbers, or a specialty piece like tonewood or a restoration project, rather than someone looking for a quick bulk harvest sale.

Emerson And Sons Logging, LLC is a family-owned logging outfit based in Groton, Vermont. They cut timber, buy logs, and do land clearing work for landowners in Caledonia County and beyond, across central Vermont and New Hampshire. They handle whole tree and selective harvesting, view enhancement cuts, timber estimates, trucking, land clearing, firewood, and chipping. They work in red pine, spruce, fir, and hardwood, and they sell into a range of markets including softwood saw logs, hardwood logs, veneer logs, pallet lumber, pulp, and chips. They say their work covers "From small scale projects to large parcels of forest land," and one landowner who hired them described a job where "they did a complete harvest on ten acres of red pine plantation," followed by thinning and clearing work on the same property. That ten-acre harvest is the smallest job they show, so it's a reasonable guide to the size of work they'll take on. They've been in business more than 30 years and are Master Logger Certified, a third-party program for forest management and job site standards. This fits a landowner in central Vermont or New Hampshire with a modest wooded lot, maybe ten acres or more, who wants one crew to handle harvesting, hauling, and cleanup without juggling separate buyers and loggers.

At their yards they scale and grade logs, and they also offer log scaling and "roadside veneer scaling services" for logs checked out on site. Suppliers get paid straight from the sawmills, since, as they put it, "there is no middleman or broker involved." Their buyers and licensed wood scalers can also come out to a logging job in the woods to help sort logs for the best return before they're sold. They serve Caledonia County out of their Hardwick yard, part of a wider network of yards and sawmills across Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and New York. Staff carry credentials including Licensed Forester, Licensed Wood Scaler, Registered Maine Guide, and Class A CDL Operator, and the company has been running since 1990. This suits a landowner in Caledonia County with spruce, fir, or hardwood timber to sell who wants to deal with a buyer paying direct from the mill rather than through a broker.

Questions landowners ask
How many timber buyers and foresters serve Caledonia County?
14 businesses are listed for Caledonia County: 1 consulting forester and 13 buyers, loggers and mills. 10 of them have offices in the county.
How much is my timber worth in Caledonia County?
Nobody can tell you what your timber is worth without walking it. Value depends on the species, the size and grade of the trees, how thickly they stand, the ground conditions and how easily a logger can reach them. Anyone who quotes you a figure without seeing the land is guessing, and a guess in that direction is rarely in your favour.
What stumpage value means →Do I need a forestry consultant to sell timber in Caledonia County?
You do not have to use one. A consulting forester works for you rather than the buyer, marks the timber, runs a sealed-bid sale and typically charges a percentage of the sale. Research from several state extension services has found that timber sold through a consultant often returns enough more to cover the fee, though results vary by tract and by market. The decision usually turns on the size of the sale and whether you have sold timber before.
Do I need a forestry consultant? →What is timber worth in Caledonia County?
No price series is published for Caledonia County on its own. Vermont's latest published stumpage figures (Vermont Department of Forests, Parks and Recreation, 2023) put white ash at $260–$358 per thousand board feet. What your own timber brings depends on the species, the size and amount of it, and how far it is from a mill. A timber cruise by a forester settles it.
