As a new member of our team, our Forestry Technician, Jessica, assists with all aspects of our forestry division. She assists with prescribed burning, timber sales, invasive species control, and pollinator field plantings. Jessica graduated from Clemson University in December of 2021, where she was named the 2021-2022 Outstanding Senior of the Clemson University College of Agriculture, Forestry, and Life Sciences.

Jessica decided to study forestry thanks to her dad, who owns and manages a timber farm in Edgefield, South Carolina. Some of her favorite memories growing up are visiting logging sites and prescribed burns on the property with her dad. Since joining our team, Jessica has moved to James Island, SC and spends her free time surfing at Folly Beach and walking around Historic Downtown Charleston with her dog, Layla.
