Forestry Contractors
Forestry Contractors may also include some of the same people listed as Forestry Consultants, however, not all these people have degrees in forestry. The Forestry Contractors list includes a broad range of people who provide tree planting, timber stand improvement and windbreak renovation services. Their experience and knowledge varies and should be affirmed by checking references.
The forestry contractors list below includes people with limited to extensive forestry knowledge and experience. Always use a professional, experienced or SAF certified forester to mark trees for thinning or to design tree plantings. Kansas Forest Service foresters and consulting foresters are available to mark trees and design tree plantings. An asterisk beside a contractor indicates they have had training from the Kansas Forest Service.

Kansas Forest Service and our partners assemble lists of contractors and service providers in an effort to connect landowners with the resources and information they need to manage their woodlands and properties.
Reference to specific businesses on these lists is not an endorsement. All businesses have requested that their information be included. No businesses have been intentionally excluded. If you would like to join our list, please complete the Contractors and Service Providers Form.
Contractors and forestry or fire-related businesses are critical to the work and mission of the Kansas Forest Service. In most of the state, there is a shortage of firefighters, forestry contractors, and in the western part of the state, certified arborists. Please reach out to these individual businesses if you are interested in employment opportunities that help protect Kansas communities and our natural resources.
