WHY USE RECLAIMED WOOD?
- It's environmentally friendly. Reclaimed wood isn't grown on farms, which often cultivate only trees that grow fast, but aren't supportive of an ecosystem. Yes, it represents a tree that's been cut down, but at least it's getting another life in your home.
- It has an age and character that cannot be mimicked. Old wood likely grew in a natural environment where it had to fight for nutrients and sun, making the wood strong and durable. Aging also brings out the color in the wood.
- Most old-growth wood is no longer available. Regulations prevent many species of tree from being harvested, so you couldn't buy new redwood for your project, for example.
- It has its own history. How many people do you know who have a wall of old barn wood on the inside of their houses?
