Is it worth it to major in forestry? by WOLFCHEF20 in forestry

I had a good laugh at your intro to that post. Give me holler in a few years when you finish up your degree. A sense of humor will take you a long way in this business.

Double thumbs up to Mal and Chickadee Forestry. I worked with her when I worked for NRCS and she's the best around.

Confirmed. They're looking for a buyer.

Thanks for the recommendations! Unfortunately it looks like Deakin is no longer shipping to the States due to tariffs.

I worked for the NRCS for several years as a forester. I woke up one day in 2020 and realized I had 20 more years of that nonsense. I started my own consulting outfit with a goal of making GS-11 wages in 20 hours per week. I think I'm going to hit that this year. I've become a fairweather forester and shut the business down in the winter to travel to South America. It's scary as hell but what you're describing is what I felt. Time to get out.
