What is the Mid-South show?
The Mid-South Forestry Equipment Show is the Deep South’s premier forestry show. It is the oldest outdoor, live logging demonstration in the nation where equipment manufacturers are allowed to operate their equipment in actual field conditions. The show has been in operation for over 35 years providing a grass-roots technology transfer between loggers, landowners, foresters, and equipment manufacturers. The two-day attendance for the past six show events has averaged 6,000 participants.
Where is the show held?
The show is permanently located in the heart of the mid-South, seven miles south of Starkville on Mississippi State University’s 8300-acre John W. Starr Memorial Forest. It is easily accessible by four-lane MS Highway 25. For directions to the show site and an area map, please click here.
