I have a few VERY nice cherry trees I am getting ready to cut down to make room for a barn. One tree is straight as an arrow for about 30 ft up , no noticeable knots and it is 8ft. in circumfrence. A few others are 7ft and one is 6 ft.
I don't know squat about how to price these or how you know how many board ft. I have etc.
Could someone please give me a quick lesson on how to price these trees and roughly how much they would be worth.
I do plan on cutting them down no matter what and trowing them in my trailer and deliver them to the mill. Thanks.
 
I'll take it, if you will deliver at no charge;):D

Ok. All kidding aside i wish it was worth more. I have cut some really nice cherry in the past. Problem is, here anyway, is there is no market. A few guys once in a while need a few boards for cabinets or furniture. Maybe a mantle piece. Thats it really. The boys at the mill just pile it in the pallet stack and send it off. Bummer really.
