Our family began tree-farming in Ohio because we believe in sustainable forestry and correctly managing forests to be used for generations. After receiving a Bachelor of Science in Sustainable Forest Management from West Virginia University, I was driven to pursue sound forest management. With over ten years experience managing forestland as a consulting forester, I continue to be enthusiastic about my work. I now actively assist in managing my own certified tree farm as well as other private and publicly owned forestland. There is nothing more fulfilling than sawing into a log and seeing all the natural beauty and character that would otherwise be left to rot in the woods. Fallen wind-blown, storm-damaged, diseased, and over-mature trees are taken to our sawmill and turned into one-of-a-kind, individualized wood-products, perfect for unique woodworking projects. I'm not looking for clear lumber, but for logs that are gnarled, figured, curly, or burly. Those full of character due to forces of nature, too many or too few nutrients, too much or too little sunlight, or those suffering from insect penetration or poor growing conditions. Natural and beautiful oddities are revealed in over-mature, storm-damaged and disease-ridden trees. OhioWoodLands processes the cut wood by air or kiln drying, planing, and edging to ready the slabs for woodworking projects. Unlike sawmills that square the lumber before milling, OhioWoodLands primarily cuts thicker slabs and slabs with live edges, striving to create a product that is truly one-of-a-kind. OhioWoodLands has been selling on eBay for over 17 years with 100% positive feedback. Ebay Name: ohiowoodlands
