Hatchers Timber
About Hatchers Timber
Hatchers Timber is a timber buyer and logging outfit based in Middleburg, Florida. Randy Hatcher owns and runs it with his son Boone. They buy standing timber throughout Northeast Florida, in Clay, Duval, Alachua, Putnam, Baker, St. Johns, Bradford, Union, Flagler, and Nassau counties. Their sellers include private landowners, developers, and forestry consultants. They start by cruising your timber, looking at boundary lines, stand density, age and type of timber, and road access. After that they submit a bid. If it's accepted, you get a written contract and a logging plan that shows where cutting starts and where the loading ramp goes. They do their own harvesting and offer clearcut and thinning work. Products include chip n saw, pulpwood, saw timber, and poles. Hardwood and cypress are taken only when a mill will buy them. They follow best management practices, and debris can be piled or scattered, as you prefer. Every load that leaves the ramp is recorded on a load sheet, and you get a copy at the end of each week. Randy is a third generation logger, and he and Boone are both Florida Master Loggers. You deal directly with the logger, with "no middleman," and they say they want you to think of them "when it grows back." This suits landowners in those ten counties who want a written plan and who would rather talk straight to the people cutting their trees. From hatcherstimber.com, read 18 October 2026.
