Tree farms are already a thing, so the idea is not crazy. Likewise, woodland owners tend to manage their forests for sustainable growth, clearing out a selection of trees every few years, making sure there is room for new growth, etc.

So you are on the right track, but may want to do some research get a good sense of what the status quo is, and then seek ways to improve. (And there are definitely ways it can be improved - not everyone is sustainable, not all woodland owners harvest at all, and even the folks who are sustainably harvesting wood could increase production with coppicing or other techniques.)
