Northern White Cedar and White Oak are traditional species used for fencing because of their ability to withstand exposure to sun and weather for many years. Treated lumber has largely replaced the use of untreated wood in fencing applications. However, Certified Organic livestock and vegetable producers (and those who wish to reduce chemical use on their farms and in their gardens) still need a long lasting, strong, untreated wood for their fencing needs. Even though many producers use steel fence posts for their fields, strong corner posts and corner bracing is still required. Tall posts surrounding a garden also help keep out deer and other pests. Raised garden beds are best made out of non-toxic materials.

(The natural-sided timbers have a beautiful rustic appearence for flower/vegetable raised beds.) White Oak is offered in 5x6 or 6x6 inch square sawn timbers.
