HI, I have at least 7-8 walnut trees on my property and would like to find out if they are worth anything. Who should I turn to, to appraise them? Thank you!

Hi Paulina: You have two options, with option #1 being the best option for landowners: 1) Contact an independent, professional consulting forester to provide you with an unbiased appraisal, or valuation of your black walnut trees: http://web.extension.illinois.edu/forestry/pdf/tfb-nres-202-14.pdf 2) Alternatively, you can contact a licensed timber buyer: http://www.dnr.illinois.gov/lpr/documents/illinoislicensedtimberbuyers.pdf Best of luck!
