Owen Brothers Logging MFA Outstanding Loggers of the Year Farmweek - August 13, 2010 |
| In this week's feature segment, "Owen Brothers Logging," the Outgoing Mississippi Forestry Association "Outstanding Logger of the Year." If you think having high production and multiple logging crews are a pre-requisite to winning this honor, think again. This Wiggins-based operation have only one 3-man crew in the woods. Their emphasis is on safety and doing a quality job for the landowner - not high production. It's turned out to be the perfect prescription for the present economy we're in. Our story takes us to northern Hancock county, less than 30-miles from the Gulf of Mexico. Reporter: Leighton Spann.
