Juniper Uses

Juniper trees ( Juniperus occidentalis)

Sustainably harvested or salvaged

Our mission is to use all parts of the tree for different purposes other than burning most of it in the field. This page contains information about the trees and shows some other uses for the wood.

The western juniper tree story
This tree which is regarded by some as a weed has spread over central Oregon over the last 60 to 80 years. The western juniper consumes an average of 40 gallons of water per day. State and Federal government agencies and private landowners want lands where these grow to be fire protected; watersheds and range land restored. We are actively involved in this effort which is how the wood is obtained.

Fencing and gates

Most of the debris left after milling and firewood is ground into chip and used for fire starter, path & road covering and landscaping. If applied properly will act as a natural herbicide.

Milling we have a portable band saw mill. It's used to rough cut juniper into different dimensions for cutting the basic slabs, leaving the natural edge of the tree intact.
