In this month’s podcast, we travel to the Northeastern Forest Products Equipment Expo (known as the Loggers’ Expo), held May 1-2 of 2026. This annual event, organized by the Northeastern Loggers’ Association, is the association's biggest event of the year, bringing together folks from all sectors of the forest products industry. In this episode, we take the exhibitor’s perspective. Thanks to Conor Callahan of Kennebec Lumber, Maury Wilkinson of Kiln-Direct, Jack Beckwith of Woodmizer, and Andrew Easton of Eastonmade Woodsplitters for sharing their viewpoints. Check out the full Expo review in the June issue of The Northern Logger.
