        There are many ways to decide on which   mber harves  ng methods a
        landowner should use. This en  re process begins with learning what the
        goals are for the land. JLC’s   mber cruisers will check the density and
        quality of trees. This includes assessing the health of the land’s ecosystem.
        Knowing as much as possible regarding an owner’s purpose for the land
        allows JLC experts to guide the work and assure the best possible care for
        the land’s improvement from beginning to end.
        JLC will provide the greatest economic and environmental benefi t. The
        varied approach to tree farming is built around growing an owner’s
        investment, by improving the long-term health of the forest, this
        tandem strategy is key to increasing   mber yields and the health of the
        environment.
        JLC believes trees are valuable and through guided   mber harves  ng,
        owners get the best value for the harvest and an improved forest. JLC has
        spent decades learning how the   mber industry works in the Puget Sound
        region. Its loggers are trained to fi nd the best value for an owner’s land.

                                                             Walking the land provides valuable informa  on such as
                                                             assessing   mber prices based on size, species, and the volume.
                                                             This informa  on can help an owner make the decision for an
