Most forest acreage in Scott County lies in central Mississippi in the Bienville National Forest country. Cover across the county runs to rolling ground in planted pine, drains left in hardwood and some longleaf restoration in the Bienville fringe.
Southeast Forestlands works only for the landowner. We do not buy timber and we are not paid by mills.
Reading Scott County Ground
In dry months it supports equipment, but rain softens it, especially near the Strong.
Cruise Work and Appraisals
Coastal-plain sites in Scott County regenerate fast, including the brush.
Nearby Counties
We also work with landowners in nearby counties, including Leake, Newton, Smith, Rankin, and Madison.
General Guidance
How the work itself is done is explained once, site-wide, rather than repeated county by county:
- What a timber cruise measures
- How a sealed-bid timber sale works
- How we sell timber
- Wet-weather logging and BMPs
- Thinning decisions
- Regeneration and replanting
- All forestry services
