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.
