Fifth-Generation Loggers | W&W Timber | John Deere Forestry

For these fifth-generation loggers, forestry isn’t just a job — it’s a way of life. From humble beginnings cutting pulpwood to running high-volume operations, their journey has been one of grit, growth, and loyalty. Wood and Wood (W&W) Timber represents five generations of loggers. Brothers Hal and Ben Wood grew up around logging and had dreams of continuing the family legacy. In 1990, their father died when they were young. “Our mother didn’t want us to log, but it is all we ever wanted to do,” says Hal, who co-owns the company with Ben. Today, the two run a successful logging operation with three crews and over a dozen John Deere forestry machines, including L-II Skidders and Feller Bunchers as well as 437D and 437E Knuckleboom Loaders. ✅ Subscribe for more John Deere videos: http://bit.ly/2Yo9Oad More From John Deere: Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/johndeere TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@JohnDeere Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JohnDeereUSCA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/JohnDeere/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/john-deere Find a Dealer: http://bit.ly/2l8PivS Visit our Website: https://www.deere.com #JohnDeere #ForestryEquipment #Logging #Forestry #Skidder
