Our Story

Built by a logger who wanted a fair price.

In the late 1970s, Mr. Keller was a logger who felt he wasn't getting a fair price from the only sawmill in town. So he bought the land our mill still stands on, started running his own log sales, and grew it — log yard, to small circle mill, to the operation we are today, shipping several trailer loads of wood product a day.
