Log homes are good for the environment. Many log home builders use standing dead timbers (trees that were 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁ed while standing, either by insects or by fire), which, when felled, improves the health of the forest and reduces wildfire threat. Companies that use trees often practice reforestation, and, the milling process for log homes reduces log house construction waste and minimizes the carbon footprint in the process. Plus, many log manufacturers recycle the waste they do create into mulch or even biofuel to heat their mills. Log house construction is versatile. Whether your style is a rustic cabin or a modern log house construction, your log cabin can be anything you want it to be.
