Remembering September 11

Today, we pause to honor and remember the lives lost, the heroes who answered the call, and the enduring resilience of the human spirit on September 11, 2001.

Twenty-five years later, we remain united in solemn remembrance. We honor the bravery of the first responders, the strength of the families affected, and the quiet dignity of a nation that came together in its darkest hour.

We will never forget.

Good Food & Great Leadership: Celebrating Our Crew

June 25th marked the 2-year anniversary of the fire in our sawmill. Instead of bringing in an outside company to clean up after the fire, President Scott Cummings chose to keep as many of our own employees as possible to do the work together. 🪵💪

To mark the anniversary and show his appreciation for the team’s dedication, Scott provided a fantastic, free catered BBQ lunch from Stone Age BBQ! 🍗🔥

A huge shout-out to Doug Joseph from Stone Age BBQ, who did an absolutely amazing job with the food—and even used our very own Barefoot & BBQ pellets to cook it! 🪵💨

The crew is incredibly grateful for the delicious meal and Scott’s ongoing support. A massive thank you to Scott for always looking out for his employees, and to Doug for knocking the lunch out of the park!

Check out some of the highlights from lunch below! 👇📸
