Value of Two Black Walnut Pasture Trees (IL)

[Post a Follow Up] [Post to this category]
From: william mcmurtry City: wilmington, IL
We have 2 trees with the following trunk sizes to the first limb [8 ft. by 110 in. circumference & 12 ft. by 97 in circ. ] located in a timber pasture. Do you have a list of potential buyers or someone that can help market the trees?

Hi William: Your best bet, due to the simple fact that these are "pasture" trees, is to contact a licensed timber buyer directly. IL Timber Buyers: http://dnr.illinois.gov/timberbuyers/ If you had more trees or if the trees were located in a non-pasture area, you would probably be better served by contacting a professional forester to assist you in marketing said black walnut trees.
