"My family and I have worked with Stephan and NRG (now South Main) for multiple decades and timber harvest cycles. Our relationship with Stephan has grown based on two characteristics that are critical for the multi-generational nature of forestry -- trust and visibility. Stephan’s professionalism, commitment, and honesty are unmatched. His knowledge and presence in the region makes his investment and management advisement both accurate and forward-thinking, and NRG's Growing Assets reporting provides us detailed visibility into all aspects of our forest estate. Growing trees is a long-term, multi-generational commitment. Stephan understands the challenges and has been our trusted advisor in every stage of our family’s journey."

"Stephan is incredibly knowledgeable about all things land and forestry. After any meeting with him, I leave with a plethora of new information. Not only is Stephan humble, but he is also very generous with his time, going above and beyond. I highly recommend Stephan and his team!"

"Stephan Tomlinson and Growing Assets have really made a huge difference in the productivity of our timberland. Stephan advised us on the best uses of our land and the best way to accomplish the plan. He then carried out the plan- on time and under budget. You could not expect more. Great job!"
