The Lyme Timber Company

Founded in 1976, The Lyme Timber Company is an employee-owned investment manager that focuses on generating long-term financial returns while sustainably managing and conserving forests, protecting biodiversity, mitigating climate change, creating quality forest-sector jobs, and supporting rural communities in the US and Canada.

Our portfolio includes 1.3 million acres of sustainably managed forestland in Michigan, Wisconsin, New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Tennessee, and Alabama. We specialise in the management of natural systems, including naturally regenerating hardwood forests, unique softwood plantations, and wetland ecosystems. Alongside the lands we manage, we invest in supply chain businesses, including sawmills, forest management companies, and innovative logging operations. Finally, we invest in mitigation banks and other ecosystem services projects that restore wetlands and rehabilitate critical habitats.

Recognised as a leader in conservation, our company has protected over 1 million acres of land through conservation easements, mitigation banking instruments, and 100-year carbon sequestration projects.
