Every fall and winter St. Pierre Woodworking tears down several old barns and buildings to salvage the wood. They use this wood to make their reclaimed mantels. Once they salvage the wood and remove any nails or metal it is ready to be processed. Most wood either gets sawed into mantels to sell or sawed into lumber for use in building reclaimed furniture or making flooring. We are proud to carry a great selection of reclaimed mantles here at Dixie Products, and as always, are a strong supporter of shopping local and shopping small.
