Consider Cedar for your Garden Wood Furniture

Western Red Cedar is a lightweight wood that is very stable and does not warp. Many other types of woods tend to crack and split, but not Cedar. There are natural oils in the wood fibers that act as a preservative to keep the wood from rotting or decaying.

Cedar is never treated with harmful chemicals as some materials are today. Therefore, it is safe for all uses because it is environmentally friendly.

It has a wonderful fragrance that is pleasing to humans, but not insects or other pests, so it will resist bug infestation.

You will never have to worry about not being able to sit on your wooden garden furnture on those hot summer days, since it will remain cool.

If Cedar is left in its natural state it will weather to a silver grey color.
It can be stained every few years, but painting will destroy the natural beauty of the wood.

Cedar is not an inexpensive wood, but you get what you pay for. This
is what makes it the most desireable wood for outdoor furniture. To view our collection, visit us at http://www.ewoodengardenfurniture.com/home_page.html.
