PROFILE

Melisa Love, head of Forestry Consultants, Inc. of Opelika, made her own way without family ties to the forestry industry. It was tough when she left an industry job in the 1980s for the flexibility that consulting offered. Many land-owners weren’t used to working with consulting foresters to manage their timber, and sometimes it was a hard sell. But she built her business from a one-woman shop to a full service consulting firm that currently employs three registered foresters and office staff.

Aside from her nearly forty years of experience, she said that the size of the office is one of their key strengths – it’s small enough to give personal attention to every client, and there’s always someone on hand that knows about each account. This is important, because the relationship between landowners and their consulting foresters is something like your relationship with your dentist, she said. There’s a lot of trust involved. For that reason, it’s important to her to offer a full spectrum of services to her clients, from management to real estate. Though she is not in the field as often as she once was, Love still treasures the privilege of witnessing the natural beauty of the land she helps to tend.
