Yes! You can have beautiful, centuries-old wood without clearcutting a rainforest. Better yet . . . you can find it right here in the U.S. Renovating with reclaimed wood for floors, cabinets and furniture is all the rage. Whole Log Lumber Mill in North Carolina saves and revives wood from demolition sites, fires and trash heaps. You simply will not find new wood this gorgeous in any store. Using reclaimed lumber in your greenovation project can not only give you the most stylish house in the neighborhood, it will also keep valuable resources out of landfills and protect virgin forests. TIP: Look for the FSC label (Forest Stewardship Council), the rainforest or reclaimed lumber for all your wood purchases.
