For nearly 40 years, tucked away in the tiny town of Edgewood, Iowa you will find Iowa’s largest sawmill. The sawmill harvests many species of wood that grow abundantly in the hills of this Northeast Iowa region and ships wood products throughout the United States and exports to other countries. Our staff is continually looking for ways to reduce waste and utilize more of the log and with our passion of creating well-crafted keepsakes for families across the country is how Kendrick Home wood art came to be. Our designers use real wood bi-product to create new and heartwarming mementos that touch your heart, tickle your funny bone, and enjoy a place of honor in your home. We are proud of our American-made décor, which can be found in stores all over this country. With our future generations in mind, all our products are made from locally sourced and sustainably harvested wood, naturally coming from our forest endeavors. Nothing goes to waste.
Since 1983, the Kendrick family has valued and respected the gifts of the forest. Tim and Rhonda Kendrick started their wood-focused business – Kendrick Forest Products, a sawmill, and logging company that would not only grow and develop to meet many different consumer needs, like furniture, cabinetry, and home décor; they would also showcase the Kendricks’ dedication to maximizing use and reducing the waste of raw material used for production. Today, Kendrick, Inc is 6 companies but 1 team, producing quality wood products.
We are proud of our commitment to forest products and in 2017 we realized a way we could use the excess high-quality grain lumber shims from our manufacturing process and put them to beautiful use.
Kendrick Home uses lumber and shims from our mill in Edgewood, Iowa, and with a staff of talented artists, we create unique one-of-a-kind art pieces for the home.
