There is a “gate change” for Timber & Biomass Expo Southeast, the large-scale logging equipment demonstration set for April 16-17 in south Georgia. The new location is now Lowndes County. Specifically, it’s a pine plantation situated 15 miles east of Valdosta, adjacent to state route 135 and four miles south of the Naylor community.
The show was previously set for Toombs County near Vidalia, Ga., but a communications breakdown among several parties nullified that arrangement. Show sponsor Hatton-Brown Publishers subsequently approached The Langdale Co. about hosting the event and its management stepped up with the new site. Headquartered in Valdosta, Langdale is a diversified timberland and forest products company.
