Services
Trees have numerous roots close to the surface of the ground hat are easily damaged by heavy machinery. Whenever possible, our timber harvesting operations use horse logging. While the initial cost of horses is slightly more, their long-term use more than pays for itself. The light weight of horses is very effective in preventing soil compactions and erosion.
Firth Maple Products operates several sawmills to generate 4 million board feet of lumber annually. We specialize in Black Cherry and white Hard Maple lumber, but offer a variety of other Appalachian Hardwoods including Soft Maple, Northern Red Oak and White Ash.
Our logs originate on the Allegheny Plateau, a region that covers Northwestern Pennsylvania and Southwestern New York and includes timber from the famous Allegheny National Forest and Susquehannock State Forest.Working with logs from the best timber regions results in Cherry lumber with very little sapwood, minimal gum and deep red heart wood.

Firth Maple Products is one of the largest producers of Allegheny Hardwoods veneer logs in Pennsylvania. We specialize in Black Cherry (prunus serotina), Sugar Maple and Northern Red Oak. Our logs come from the Allegheny Plateau of Northern Pennsylvania and Southern New York. This region is home to the famed Allegheny National Forest and Susquehannock State Forest, both known for producing the highest quality Cherry timber.
The Sugar Maple tree produces a sweet sap that is used in making pure maple syrup. This tree is indigenous only to the Northeastern United States, Southeastern Canada and certain areas around the Great Lakes. This small area is therefore the only place in the world where maple syrup is made. Nutrients are taken from the soil by the tree roots and delivered via the sap to the buds.
