Adirondack Forest Service has been helping landowners achieve their goals and objectives since 2004. Growing up in Tupper Lake, NY, owner Tate Connor spent his teen years hiking, camping and canoeing in the Adirondack Mtns. After getting a Forest Recreation degree at Paul Smiths College and a BS in Forestry at the University of Maine, he continued gaining experience in many different aspects of th
e Forestry, Logging, Tree Work, Sawmill and Trail Building. A lifetime love of logging and forestry helped create the core of what Adirondack Forest Service is. Our focus is on the lighter side of logging and we are happy to be on a small lot. The thrill of felling a tree, directing it to go where you want tops the list of exciting things one can get paid for. Being able to work on woodlots where people are invested in the results is great opportunity. In 2004 Tate and his father upgraded from using a chainsaw mill to a manual bandsaw mill. That mill, still in service today, cut a lot of lumber for projects and products for sale. By 2009 the need to upgrade was apparent and they purchased a Woodmizer LT 40 Hydraulic which currently makes sawdust for customers on their properties all over the Adirondacks. After getting a taste of tree climbing, while working for a local tree care company, Tate started climbing trees for pruning, removals and fun. Adirondack Forest Service has worked all over northern NY, VT and NH removing hazard trees.
