Why buy from a sawmill instead of a store
- You see the real slab. Every listing is the actual piece, not a sample.
- No middleman. The people who cut it are the people you’re buying from.
- You know when it was cut and how dry it is. Every listing shows drying status and the month it was milled.
- Sizes stores don’t carry. Most retail slab shops top out around 36″ wide.

What customers say
I was fortunate enough to stumble across Pop's Barn about a year ago, and I have never looked back. First and foremost - they are extremely knowledgeable and you are able to ask questions. Their inventory is second to none and they mill and kiln everything in house, so you know that you are getting quality. The products that I have purchased from them have been absolutely beautiful, including a large 12x4 foot oak slab that became my family dining room table. I have also purchased maple, black walnut, and other species - all of them were great. What also needs mentioning is the quality of people that Pops and Will are - working with them is like seeing old friends - they are welcoming, helpful, and always get back to me quickly with any request I may have. I look forward to a long partnership with them! You should too!
Came across Pops Barn on Marketplace and decided to stop by for some Hickory. Quite the place! Great selection of dimensional and live edge wood for all kinds of projects at very fair prices!
