Hi there - I am Kathryn First - I am very appreciative of your services to us. Second - We have appx 20 acres of woods that we would like to "re-timber". The previous owners had the Amish, I believe, come into the woods and cut down trees. We moved here appx 2 years ago and would like to "re-timber" the back 20 acres. QUESTION Are there any programs, grants, money, help....etc for "re-planting" our woods? I REALLY look forward to hearing from you. Kathryn
