Value of Cut Black Walnut Logs (MO)

[Post a Follow Up] [Post to this category]
From: Laura Ruether City: Lebanon, MO
We have 60 walnut logs cut and laid in a row. They range from 16-30 inches in diameter with the bark still on. We have been told about 7 are veneer quality. What price per bd ft should we be looking for?

Greetings Laura: Unfortunately, I don't appraise timber over the phone or internet. All I can recommend is that you contact several timber buyers or local professional foresters who are experienced and trustworthy in appraising timber. Next time, market the timber before you cut the trees - not the other way around :-) If you are interested in Illinois timber price reports, please visit the following Websites: http://web.extension.uiuc.edu/forestry/blogs/eb94/ http://web.extension.uiuc.edu/forestry/il_timber_prices/index.html Best of luck!
