Forestry Services for Private Landowners and Commercial Clients
Environmental Forest Products provides certified forestry consulting across Sullivan, Orange, and Ulster counties in New York, plus Pike and Wayne counties in Pennsylvania and Sussex County in New Jersey. Every service is led by Henry Kowalec — a consulting forester with more than 30 years of hands-on experience in this specific region.
The firm's work ranges from New York's 480-a Forest Tax Law program — where Henry is one of a small number of foresters in the region certified to write the required DEC-approved management plans — to timber harvesting, land clearing, woodlot management, wildlife habitat improvement, and residential tree work. The common thread across all of these services is that every decision is grounded in what Henry actually observes on your property, not in a general estimate or a phone conversation.
Whether you own 10 acres or 1,000, the starting point is the same: a site assessment that tells you what you are working with, what your options are, and what any given course of action is actually worth pursuing. From there, the work is yours to direct.
