Santa Cruz Sustainable Sawmill

Santa Cruz Sustainable Sawmill

Mobile milling, custom lumber and live-edge slabs, from our yard or yours.

About Us

We are a locally owned and operated sawmill serving Santa Cruz and the greater Bay Area. With over a decade of experience, we specialize in mobile milling services, custom lumber, and live-edge slabs.

We do select, non-invasive tree extrication using small scale harvesting methods with minimal impact to our native forestry. All of our custom wood is cut from fallen or sustainably harvested trees, from our yard or yours.

We are fully insured and work with individual clients, businesses, contractors, and designers to deliver custom services and quality craftsmanship.
