Success story:
I have many clients with whom I have been assisting for decades. I get great satisfaction beginning a relationship with a landowner who is unaware of how to manage his/her forest and seeing that person develop into a veteran forest manager. I work with over 200 clients and I will be happy to provide a list of references. If I had to pick one landowner it would be Mr. Tommy Rainwater. We met 30 years ago when he needed advice on establishing Loblolly Pines in his cultivated fields. We have worked together and turned his property into a showplace. We have hosted many landowner tours and educational activities. Tommy has learned how to be a great forest manager. He loves to prescribe burn so much he actually works part time with me during burning season.
