Raw Materials Sources (Go directly to photos)

1) Old pre-50’s logged-over sites that are being re-logged for their 2nd and 3rd growth redwood. Old growth logs that were missed or left behind by loggers “high-grading” are still being recovered by our local gyppo loggers.

2) Windfalls and trees that have been undercut by flooding of our local rivers are deposited on river bars and floated out to sea and consequently end up on our beaches at storm tides during the heavy fall rains.

3) Standing “snags” – decades dead, and burnt out cores of standing old growth are still being discovered and removed as site-prep for new homes.

4) Recycled timbers salvaged from bridge removal and mill deconstruction.
