5 Fun Facts about Trees
Embracing the enchanting arrival of this captivating season, where nature paints a masterpiece with its changing leaves, we're delighted to bring you a touch of tree-inspired wonder. In this month's newsletter, let's explore 5 fascinating and delightful facts about trees
The world is home to more than 23,000 different kinds of trees.
Just one tree can absorb as much as 48 pounds of carbon dioxide a year and can sequester a ton of CO2 safely by the time it’s 40 years old, which is why they’re so important in the battle against climate change
City trees tend to live for an average of 13 years less than country trees.
The terms softwood and hardwood describe the leaves, seeds and structure of the trees rather than the type of wood they produce.
The world’s tallest living standing hardwood tree is a mountain ash called Centurion in Tasmania. It’s about 329 feet 8 3/4 inches high

Did you know?
Our products are hand crafted and designed from reclaimed wood. Each product is unique making it the perfect gift or one of a kind décor item for your home or a gift for loved ones
Why Choose Reclaimed Wood?
In the heart of every reclaimed plank lies a rich history, making it more than just a material choice; it's a conscious decision for a sustainable future.
Preserving Nature, One Board at a Time:
We opt to use for reclaimed lumber, to actively combat deforestation. By repurposing existing wood, we are reducing the demand for freshly sourced timber, playing a vital role in protecting our forests.
Beyond Sustainability:
Reclaimed wood isn't just environmentally friendly; it's a renewable resource with a guilt-free exotic allure. In a world where responsible sourcing matters, reclaimed wood stands tall. Whether it's the sturdy beams of an old barn or the weathered planks from a decommissioned ship, trees downed in a storm, or a tree lovingly removed due to disease each piece comes with a unique story to tell.
Strength and Character:
Old-growth trees yield reclaimed wood, making it up to 40 points harder on the Janka scale than virgin wood. This strength, coupled with its distinct weathered appearance, makes reclaimed wood an ideal choice for those who seek both durability and charm.
Unique Aesthetics:
The charm of reclaimed wood lies in its weathered patina and distinctive character, an aesthetic that's impossible to replicate with new materials. Every dent, every mark, whispers tales of its past life, adding depth and authenticity to your projects.
We take pride in crafting exquisite home decor items from carefully sourced reclaimed wood. Choosing our products means embracing a story-rich aesthetic that mass-produced items simply can't replicate. Each piece of reclaimed wood holds a unique history, transforming your home into a haven of authenticity and character. By opting for our handcrafted creations, you're not just adorning your space; you're making a statement. You're saying no to the uniformity of mass production and yes to the individuality and sustainability that only reclaimed wood can offer. Elevate your space with pieces that carry a legacy, a touch of history, and a commitment to a greener world.
