Timber

One of the most appealing features of this tract is its timber composition and prime location. Approximately 92 acres consist of a loblolly pine plantation, planted in 2016, which is growing and maturing well. This timber will offer a near-term opportunity for income, as it should be ready for thinning in the next 6 to 7 years. Once thinned, the trees will be released to continue growing into higher product classes, thereby increasing their value. Thinning will also enhance the property's wildlife habitat.

In this region, plantations typically reach full financial maturity between 26 and 30 years. Additional thinnings or a final harvest can be considered based on the owner's goals. This area has a strong timber market, with several wood-processing facilities nearby, ensuring competitive options for future timber sales.
