So the Home and Garden is in full effect in the New Orleans Superdome right now and of course we are there making contacts and letting the Greater New Orleans area in on a great option for any woodworking needs.

Although it isn’t always easy to get away from home base at these conventions, I had a chance to walk around and take in the scenery. And one thing that seemed overwhelmingly popular at this years show was the idea of going green, and being environmentally friendly.

Its nice to see an emphasis on doing the little things to help. And its nice to be able to say that we at Central City Millworks have been trying to do right by mother nature since our genesis. (That is a hard word to use without seeming biblical or like a Phil Collins fan) We have always been big believers in salvaging wood to create our heart pine flooring (which has been a hit so far). In fact a large percentage of our wood comes from reuse and recycling.

So I guess I’m patting out backs a little bit, but whats the point of being involved in a buisness if you can’t be proud of it?
