Alaskan Yellow Cedar

Page dedicated to Alaskan Yellow Cedar and its close cousin, Port Orford Cedar

In addition to our full offering of western red cedar fence products, split rail, boards and timbers We also carry an extensive inventory of Alaskan Yellow Cedar in appearance grade and clears. Because of our purchasing power we are able to offer this rare and sought after lumber at prices 30 percent or more less than you might find elsewhere,,, if you can find it. What is amazing about Alaskan yellow cedar is just about everything. It is the strongest of the cedars, exceptionally resistant to rot, insects and fungus, more so than pressure treated lumber, works very well with hand ant power tools, with creamy white to yellow grain and interesting brown tan and blue streaks for character. It is used for boat   and airplane construction, musical instruments, intricate carvings, totem poles, siding, roofing, decks and structural framing. Research for yourself and you will find nothing but accolades for this super-wood.
