Northwind Lumber specializes in reclaimed wood products and custom milling services, offering sustainable materials for builders, designers, and woodworking enthusiasts in the Twin Cities region.

Their core inventory includes reclaimed dimensional lumber, salvaged from barns, industrial buildings, and other deconstructed structures. These boards retain the character of aged wood, featuring nail holes, weathered textures, and patina that make them ideal for rustic and vintage-style projects. Customers use this lumber for accent walls, ceiling treatments, furniture, and architectural features.

Northwind also offers live edge slabs and beam stock, milled from locally sourced urban trees. These pieces are available in various species and sizes, suitable for tabletops, mantels, and custom installations. The slabs are air- or kiln-dried and can be planed or left rough depending on the intended use.

Their custom milling services include flattening, planing, resawing, and shaping reclaimed or fresh-cut wood. Clients can bring in their own material or select from Northwind’s stock to have it processed to exact specifications. This service supports both one-off projects and batch production for contractors or designers.

In addition to raw materials, Northwind provides fabrication support for custom builds. Their team collaborates with clients to produce finished pieces such as shelving, counters, and wall panels. These builds often incorporate reclaimed wood and are tailored to fit residential or commercial spaces.

Northwind Lumber emphasizes local sourcing and sustainability, working with tree removal services and demolition crews to recover usable wood that would otherwise be discarded. Their yard and shop serve as a resource for those seeking environmentally conscious materials with unique visual appeal.

Customers can visit their facility to browse inventory, consult on projects, or arrange for custom milling. Northwind’s approach combines craftsmanship, sustainability, and regional character, making them a distinctive supplier in the reclaimed wood market.
