Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Old Growth Riverwood Old Growth Riverwood Brings History Into Your Home or Business From the 1700's until the early 1900's, trees were harvested and sent floating down the Cape Fear River to local mills. The virgin forests of early America were an abundant natural resource and settlers wanted to harness the beauty, strength, and durability of Heart Pine and quickly set out to clear cut the vast forests. In order to process the timbers, they had to be shipped to the nearest sawmill and rivers were the primary means of transporting the timbers. When a bend or a rough spot was reached on the river, many of the massive timbers were lost underwater and a large number of trees, called sinkers, were so dense that they sank to the bottom of the river, and in a time when America was covered by plentiful forests, there was no need or method to retrieve the trees from the depths of the river. So these lost treasures were stranded on river floors and could not be recovered... until today. After being submerged for over a century, they have been perfectly preserved. Our historic river-preserved heart pine comes from locations throughout the Cape Fear Region in Wilmington, North Carolina and some surrounding areas. These timbers have a unique patina that newly milled timber simply cannot compete with. The historic value and recovery process only add to it's rare beauty. Riverwood when processed, makes unique flooring and paneling and it is also perfect for custom furniture construction and design and can be stained or left in it's raw looking natural state. cape fear riverwoodProduct reclaimed wood can produce: ?

There is superior quality to Riverwood when compared to factory processed new wood and, as a bonus, the material is environmentally sound, since it involves no cutting down of living trees.
