The Bureau of Land Management says recent timber sales in Oregon brought in more than $8.3 million, with 27.6 million board feet sold across 1,255 acres of public land.
According to the agency, the sales reflect continued demand from the domestic lumber industry and are expected to help supply regional mills while supporting jobs tied to timber and forest products.
Among the sales was the Muley Mount tract in the Roseburg District. That sale included 5 million board feet from 175 acres and went to Scott Timber Company of Roseburg for $1,313,495.
Other recent sales around the state included:
- Eckley Empanada, Coos Bay District: 1.8 million board feet on 105 acres, sold to Harveys' Selective Logging, Inc. of Creswell for $142,228

BLM said the total amount paid exceeded appraised values by more than $3 million, which the agency described as a sign of strong market demand.
Looking ahead, the agency said it plans to hold seven timber sales in March 2026, offering a combined 56.9 million board feet across 1,939 public acres in Oregon.
The BLM manages 58 million acres of forests nationwide, including 2.4 million acres in western Oregon, and says its forestry program is intended to support timber production, local economies, wildfire risk reduction, and habitat conservation.
Agency officials said BLM forestry sales support about 2,000 jobs nationally each year and contribute more than $1 billion to local economies. In fiscal year 2025, the agency offered 301 million board feet of timber through new sales, stewardship contracts, and good neighbor agreements.
