Foresters Working Toward Your Goals

Experienced Kretz foresters help meet the management needs of your timberlands. They listen to your goals and develop management plans for harvesting today and for future generations. Our foresters work closely with contracted, insured loggers. Selective harvests in northern hardwoods will insure sustainable use of the resource as well as encourage the long-term health of the forest. With more than 75 years of experience, we understand the value of long-term relationships. We believe forests are more than just trees – they are a multi-generation treasure.
