About Noah M. Smith Forestry Services
Noah M. Smith Forestry Services is a forestry practice based in Hillsville, Virginia. Noah Smith is the sole proprietor and operator. The business serves private landowners in Virginia and surrounding states, and its pages name Virginia's Western Highlands and South Georgia as areas Noah has worked. The stated aim is to give private landowners access to "sound forestry science." For a timber sale, Noah administers the sale on a commission. He also does timber cruising and appraisals, timber marking, timber inventory and analysis, and timber sale contract preparation. He writes long term forest management plans, forest stewardship plans and pre-harvest road designs, and does GPS and GIS mapping. Other listed work includes harvesting, pre-commercial thinning, timber stand improvement, tree planting in pine and hardwood, prescribed burning, boundary line painting, hunting lease administration and wildlife habitat management. Its harvesting work is listed for tracts under 15 acres. Counties listed as served include Carroll, Floyd, Grayson, Pulaski, Wythe and Bedford, among many others. Noah has a B.S. in Forestry from West Virginia University, and the business lists consulting forester work as prescribed in Virginia state code §10.1-1181.9. This suits a landowner who wants a forester to run a timber sale on commission and plan the land over the long term. From noahmsmithforestry.com, read 23 October 2026.

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.
