Pike County, PA lies directly across the Delaware River from Sullivan and Orange counties in New York, and Environmental Forest Products serves private woodland owners in the county for timber harvesting, land clearing, and woodlot management consulting. The forests of Pike County are dominated by mixed oak, hemlock, and northern hardwood stands, with the Pocono Plateau terrain creating significant variation in site quality and species composition across different elevations.
EFP has worked on timber and land management projects in Pike County for landowners near the Delaware River corridor and in the interior townships. While Pennsylvania does not have a direct equivalent to New York's 480-a Forest Tax Law, Pennsylvania landowners may benefit from woodland management planning for Clean and Green program eligibility, timber sale preparation, and site-specific improvement work. Henry Kowalec can discuss the management options applicable to PA woodland properties during an initial consultation.

Why Pike County Landowners Work With EFP
Henry Kowalec has been working in Pike County and the surrounding region for more than 30 years.

Environmental Forest Products is based in Westbrookville, Sullivan County — not a regional franchise or an out-of-area operator. When EFP takes on a project in Pike County, Henry Kowalec conducts the site assessment personally, plans the work based on what he sees on the ground, and is directly accountable for the outcome. That direct, personal approach is the foundation of every service EFP provides.

How do I find out what my Pike County timber is worth?
A timber appraisal from a certified consulting forester establishes what your timber is actually worth on the current market — species by species, size-class by size-class. This is the essential first step before agreeing to any timber sale, and it gives you an independent benchmark for evaluating offers. Environmental Forest Products provides timber appraisals throughout Pike County.
Does EFP handle land clearing in Pike County?
Yes. Land clearing for residential and commercial site preparation is available throughout Pike County. Every clearing project begins with a timber assessment — if merchantable trees are present, that value is recovered before clearing begins rather than being chipped or burned. This step often offsets a meaningful portion of the project cost.
