WIll anyone come to my old xmas tree farm to remove the trees And pay me for it?

Question

I have roughly 5 acres of pine trees in Greene, NY that need to be cleared out. I know theres people out there that would buy them, but can you come and get them too? I am available to clear them and load them if needed.

Mostly scotch pine, some white spruce and douglas fir. Trees range from 12' - 27'

Answer 1

If it was mine i'd wait for christmas, put a few ads around locally and sell the smallest as christmas trees, perhaps donating a couple of large ones for local town squares, then cut the rest and sell the firewood. The branches will make a nice bonfire on some occasion or other.

Answer 2

If you cut em up into logs, they'd go easily as firewood, but thats time consuming work that would take awhile.

You could try contacting a paper company (like Mead). They used to pay landowners where I lived in southern Ohio to harvest their trees. Alot of landowners benefited really well from the relationship.  

Here's the phone number to Mead Consumer Affairs: 800.648.6323. They can at least point you in the right direction.

Hope it helps.
