Affiliates of The Lyme Timber Company LP closed on approximately 46,900 acres of timberlands in southeastern Tennessee and northern Alabama. This diverse, natural Appalachian hardwood property has an established log yard and accesses robust local markets. A forest carbon sequestration project is underway, and Lyme expects to maintain certification for this property under the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) program. Straight Fork Forest Management, based in Huntsville, Tennessee, with unique expertise in log merchandizing and marketing, manages this property as well as the Emory River and Brimstone properties owned by affiliates of Lyme.
