  5. hi. we may be felling and reducing a lot of douglas and noble fir in 2 weeks in a small mixed forest. mostly edge trees and trees too tall to straight fell so the timber will not go anywhere near covering the cost of the job. has anyone on here any experience of harvesting noble fir foliage? i have a customer for it provided he is happy with the quality. just wondering if its worthwhile. if it was it could become a small annual income for the client from his forest. any imput/advice would be appreciated. thanks
