About the Forester

Meet Christian Stevens, Consulting Forester and Founder

Stevens Forestry was founded on a simple principle: landowners deserve honest, knowledgeable guidance in managing their woods. As the owner and consulting forester behind the name, Christian Stevens brings a hands-on, client-first approach to every project — backed by technical skill, field experience, and a passion for sustainable forestry. Christian holds a degree in forestry and has worked with many landowners, loggers, and agencies throughout Michigan and the Midwest. In addition to consulting forestry, his background includes work in timber procurement, soil conservation, and utility forestry. He is a candidate certified forester, and stays up to date on both local timber markets and long-term forest health practices.

A Personal Approach to Professional Forestry

Christian believes that good forestry starts with good communication. That’s why he works directly with every client — visiting your woods, understanding your goals, and building custom strategies to get you there. He brings a mix of modern tools, field experience, and plainspoken advice to the table. Whether you own a small hunting property or thousands of forested acres, you’ll get his full attention and honest perspective. There are no middlemen, no industry bias — just a forester working in your best interest.
