Learn about Red Cedar....

Western Red Cedar is one of the world's most durable woods. Natural resistance to moisture, decay and insect damage has long made Western Red Cedar the premier choice for either interior or exterior home use. Cedar fibers in the heartwood contain natural preservatives that are toxic to decay-causing fungi.

The tree's ability to produce these extractives increases with age, making the outer regions of heartwood the most durable.
