PROFILE
Eddie Stone
of Forever Green, Inc. in Leeds is a one man
consulting company, specializing in ARC, GIS and
GPS mapping, timber sales and appraisals, site
prep, and real estate. Most often, he finds
himself talking about economics. Timberland is
an asset class, and both buyers and sellers need
Stone’s help to know what it is worth. He says
the most satisfying part of his job is helping
landowners not make big mistakes.
“You mess up a haircut, it’ll take about three
weeks for it to grow out,” he said. “You mess up
a timber sale, that’s a generational mistake.”
Negotiating a timber sale or selling the family
land is something a person will likely only do
once, and he likes to help people get it right.
Stone works generally within about 150 miles of
Leeds, a landscape that is dotted with evidence
of long-gone residents. He sees a lot of home
and industrial sites that have been swallowed by
forest, such as grown-over rail lines, a
homesteader’s well, or a 1904 kiln from an old
limestone quarry. “You’ll see 20 or 30 graves,
abandoned and gone. That used to be a
neighborhood. They were trying to farm that
rocky ground in Blount County and they were
about starving to death. It’s good
for timber, though.”
