Live Demo

This Is The Real Deal, The November Place To Be!

Plum Creek site demo dubbed a “must see” by Southern Loggin’ Times and Timber Harvesting magazines. A world class live bio-harvesting, handling, baling, chipping/grinding demo. The largest such conference and demo ever in U.S.

“Each piece of equipment is here for a specific technology or technique reason”, Dr. Fred Kurpiel reports. He cites several points why F2FP is the place to be for everyone related to the forest and forest products industry in the South, which supplies over 60% of the wood fiber tonnage harvested for the entire U.S. today.
