OUR RICH HISTORY

ABOUT US

Our dedicated, safety-conscious team consists of 50 full-time, year-round people from our local communities.


We operate a single shift from Monday to Friday and produce approximately 30 million board feet of spruce lumber annually, which includes a very small volume of hemlock lumber. We produce premium spruce, random length lumber as well as premium spruce decking products.


Our sawmill generates bi-products of wood chips, sawdust and hogged bark.  Our planer mill generates bi-products of planer shavings and trim-ends.
 

 

We pride ourselves in supporting our local suppliers. Our most long-term, loyal customer base is mostly located in Nova Scotia.  We also proudly serve customers in Newfoundland, New Brunswick, Ontario and Quebec.
