Illinois Consulting Foresters Association member foresters are seasoned professionals formally trained to practice forestry. These consulting foresters hold university degrees in forestry, years of experience, a wide range of certifications and licenses, and the shared knowledge base that ICF facilitates across the state of Illinois.
Illinois Consulting Foresters are independent professionals whose primary objective is to represent the forest landowner. Consulting foresters are not loggers. Consulting foresters are independent professionals with a toolbox aimed at maximizing your forest income, while protecting and improving the quality of your forestland.
An appropriately managed forestland should provide the returns of other investments of similar risk. Unfortunately, underpriced timber sales and destructive forestry practices often limit this earnings potential from forest acreage. Professional consulting foresters are trained and experienced at marketing timber among timber buyers for best returns, while also providing the guidance to manage and improve timber for sustained investment returns over generations.
