The original growth forests on the North American continent played a historic role in America’s greatness and Antique Wood News is proud to promote awareness and education concerning the use of recovered and reclaimed wood in restorations, remodeling and in new construction too. Each board milled is going back to work for many more generations, and saving our old-growth wood from over-harvesting.

There are many sources of reclaimed wood including old buildings and factories, rivers, old railroads, fallen and dead trees, wharfs and docks, and barrels from breweries and wineries. Antique wood is historical, beautiful, environmental and the people who work with it are passionate about this natural resource. We would love to hear from you, about your projects, your skills and your photos. Share with other antique wood enthusiasts, like you!
