# Wood & Wood Planks

[Lumberjacks](https://wiki.blocklords.com/game-mechanics/squads/squad-types/farming-squads/lumberjacks) and[ Villagers ](https://wiki.blocklords.com/game-mechanics/squads/squad-types/farming-squads/villagers)play a vital role in wood collection. You can dispatch them to forests to gather wood for your farm, and by upgrading your [warehouse](https://wiki.blocklords.com/game-mechanics/farming/buildings/building-types/warehouse), you can store more of it. The collected wood can be processed into Wood Planks at the[ lumbermill ](https://wiki.blocklords.com/game-mechanics/farming/buildings/building-types/lumbermill)by Lumberjacks. These planks are valuable, either for [trade](https://wiki.blocklords.com/game-mechanics/world-map/cities/city-buildings/marketplace) or for use in advanced crafting. The forests in BLOCKLORDS are dynamic; they get depleted with farming but replenish over time.
