Wow, so you know all about our high production fir trees? Most of those mills have their own tree stands, they really take care of their forests. But they still buy from small timber growers, like ours. We harvested about 35 acres and got 405,000 board feet of mostly fir and a little cedar. All of it was bought by the local mills, Roseburg Forest Products and Keller Lumber that only mills cedar.

Most days I am watering some of the baby trees, the ones closer to our house that we can see. The logged land is so bad looking, I keep looking for the green of the baby trees to show, it may be a few more years. Worried about them with the drought.

We also buy 2x4 & 2x6 studs from Roseburg. We do not trade cedar. I am not familiar with Keller Lumber.
