Hickory & Oak Sawmilling and Lumber Company, LLC

Hickory & Oak Sawmilling and Lumber Company, LLC We sell locally grown kiln dried hardwood lumber. Also offer custom sawmilling, kiln drying, resawing, planning and wide panel sanding.

We are a small family run business that takes great pride in providing quality Great Lakes region hardwood lumber, kiln drying and millwork services. Our niche is the local grown hardwoods that this area is famous for. We are far enough north that we get the Northern hardwoods like hard Maple, Beech and Birch but we are still south enough for such woods as Sassafras, Sycamore, and Tulip Poplar. Th

is allows us to provide a great variety of species including Ash, Elm, Walnut, Cherry, Hickory, White and Red Oak, just to name a few and they are all locally grown. So despite our name we offer a lot more then just Hickory and Oak. We take pride in the local forest land that families enjoy for recreation such as hiking and hunting. Because of this we strive to be good stewards of the land. Whenever possible we use trees that would have of otherwise been wasted. Examples include trees blown down from windstorms, clearings for development, and yard trees from arborist that would have been trucked to local land fills or cut for firewood. We gather this local resource and turn a waste product into lumber that is used for everything from cabinets and flooring to fencing and horse stalls. Not all lumber comes from such trees but we make every effort to utilize as much of this "waste" wood as we can. Come on out to beautiful Southwest Michigan and get your supply of hardwood lumber or give us a call and see if we can special mill what you need. Customized and knowledgeable service is what we are known for and each of our customers is treated to this unique service.

As some of you know, the cover of our Quonset building blew off this winter. Finally got the new cover installed and she’s looking good.

Haven’t posted here in a while, guess I’m not good at the social media thing.

I’m excited to tell you that I have a lot of really good kiln dried lumber in stock. Have some exceptional 6/4 curly Cherry thats deeply curled and I’d consider it to be quilted.
Good selection of 4/4-8/4 Walnut. Some very wide boards at around 17”
Quarter sawn white oak, wide boards for qs. Some at 8-10”
Also I have curly maple in stock.

As always, lots of live edge slabs in Walnut, oak, maple, cherry and a few others.
Open primarily by appointment but I’m usually in the shop in the mornings so you can out by chance. Give me a call at (269) 436-0039 to setup a time.

Thank you and be safe in the old wood shop!

Fresh out of the kiln is a stack of curly Walnut live edge slabs. They are 9’ long 20-28” wide, 2.5” thick and they are flat out beautiful!

The pictures dont do them justice. Schedule a time to come out and take a look.

Also new is 5/4 spalted Maple lumber. Very character and interesting wood. The boards are 8-10’ by 5-6” wide.

Pictures below show some other slabs/lumber available and a few items I’m currrently working on in the shop.

Keep making sawdust and watch your digits near spinning saw blades. I’m hearing reports of people cutting fingers and hands on table saws.

Hope your summer went well and all is good. I haven’t posted in awhile -going to try to get better at this social media thing.

The hours here at Hickory&Oak have changed. We are now open by appointment. I’ll still be here most week day mornings from 9 to 12 so you can chance it and come over and you’ll be fine 90% of the time as I’ll be here most mornings. Afternoon appointments work as well but I’m usually back at the mill and cant see people come in so afternoon is by appointment only.
Saturday mornings are also by appointment or chance. Always closed Sundays and I will not respond to calls or texts on Sunday.

Next week (October 14) we will be closed because I’m heading to North Carolina to help with disaster relief.

Thank you and here are a few pictures of some nice lumber and projects that we have been working on.

Good day to all the followers, friends and customers of Hickory&Oak!Starting this week through first part of September w...

Good day to all the followers, friends and customers of Hickory&Oak!

Starting this week through first part of September we will be open by appointment only. This is due to an extended trip I’m taking.
If you would like to come pick up some of our great lumber, you will need to contact Roger at 269-363-2365 and arrange a time. Text works best for Roger.
We will be back to more normal hours mid September but I dont have an exact date yet. Thanks for your patience.

Here’s a few pictures because how can you make a post without them?

I have the pleasure of slabbing a customers large White Oak log. It’s a mammoth at 60” diameter at the large end and 40” at the small end. The slabs are turning out to be absolutely beautiful. Lots of figured grain and almost no knots or blemishes (other then some metal).
If you are interested in any of these slabs let me know, the customer is wanting to sell them.
