Today we’re joined by Jared McLellan, Consulting Forester with Anundson and O’Barto and a graduate of Hocking College. Jared holds degrees in both Forest Management and Wildlife Management.

This episode pairs perfectly with the Grouse Initiative podcast released on March 15th, diving deeper into how thoughtful forest management impacts both landowners and wildlife.

Jared shares key insights for landowners considering a timber harvest—covering forest health, property goals, and timing—while also explaining how proper forest management benefits wildlife.

If you’re passionate about the outdoors or managing your property, this episode is for you.
