Crafting Sustainability: Transforming Urban Trees into Beautiful Wood Products

Updated: Aug 14

In the heart of our bustling city, where concrete and steel tower above, lies a hidden treasure waiting to be discovered - Atlantic Fine Woods Urban Sawmill. We have a unique mission to breathe new life into discarded city trees, transforming them into exquisite wood products that tell a story of sustainability and craftsmanship.





The Mission Behind Atlantic Fine Woods


At Atlantic Fine Woods, we believe that every tree has a story to tell. When urban trees are removed due to disease, storm damage, or urban development, they often end up in landfills, contributing to waste and environmental degradation. Our mission is to rescue these trees and give them a second life, turning them into beautiful, sustainable wood products.


From Tree to Treasure: The Transformation Process


Our transformation process begins with the careful selection of urban-harvested trees from the Atlanta area. Each tree is meticulously processed at our sawmill, where it's cut into stunning lumber, live edge slabs, and other handcrafted pieces. The natural grain and character of the wood are preserved, ensuring that every piece is unique.


The Beauty of Live Edge Slabs


One of our most popular products is the live edge slab. These slabs retain the natural contours of the tree, showcasing the raw beauty and unique grain patterns of the wood. They are perfect for creating custom furniture pieces like dining tables, coffee tables, and countertops that make a statement in any home.


Sustainable Craftsmanship


Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond rescuing trees. We use eco-friendly finishes and sustainable practices throughout our woodworking process. By choosing urban-harvested wood, you're supporting a more sustainable future and helping to reduce deforestation.


The Environmental Impact


Through our efforts, Atlantic Fine Woods has sequestered 1,410,000 pounds of carbon from polluting Atlanta's atmosphere. This significant impact not only benefits the environment but also contributes to a healthier community. Every piece of furniture we create is a testament to our dedication to environmental stewardship.


Craftsmanship and Quality


Our artisans pour their heart and soul into every piece they create. From the initial milling to the final finishing touches, we ensure that each product meets the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship. Our pieces are not just furniture; they are heirlooms that can be passed down through generations.

Whether you're looking for a statement piece for your living room or a custom dining table, Atlantic Fine Woods has something to offer.
