Who We Are

About Us

Our Story

Three Decades of
Forestry Excellence

Established in 1995, Northwood Logging began as a small regional harvesting contractor with a clear mission: deliver measurable productivity improvements through expert coaching and sustainable practice.

Over the following decades, we developed a world-class liaison program built on the best practices of logging experts from across United States and internationally. Today, Northwood Logging provides coaching services to more than 500 operators annually — from small harvesting contractors to some of the largest multibillion-dollar international grower companies.

Every company that has made the decision to be best-in-class has engaged our program, achieving an average of 30% productivity improvement after the first phase, with continued gains through follow-up coaching.
