Timber is the most renewable natural resource available for our use. It takes less energy to build a log home than a traditional home. Plus, it is a reusable material, which means that 500 years from now when your luxury log cabin is gracefully aged and time to be laid to rest, you can recycle its materials instead of adding to the landfill. Most importantly you are reducing the amount of carbon footprint that is left behind by conventional buildings.
