ABOUT BARNWOOD
The older the wood, the better the wood.
"It seems strange that with all our modern methods, today's lumber is very inferior to that used two hundred years ago. Even the best of modern kiln dried wood cannot equal the keeping qualiy of wood as "prepared" by the early craftsmen." - Eric Sloane
As farms disappear or are modernized, the lumber, when possible, is reclaimed. It is then sorted and graded and turned into furniture and flooring. The colors, board widths and grain character cannot be replicated using today's new wood. The shape of the knots, nail holes, plugs, bolt holes, cracks and weather streaks all add to the unique look and character.
​
These beautiful structures average in age 120-200 years old. We at the Rustic Country Barn are very proud to play a part in the recreation of these majestic structures.
