EcoLog Homes
EcoLog Homes is a builder and supplier of log home kits. The logs they harvest come from the 70,000 acres (280 km2) privately owned Haliburton Forest & Wildlife Reserve Ltd. Specific quantities of mature hemlock come due for harvesting every season, some measuring up to thirty inches in diameter. Each tree is individually selected, carefully felled and skidded by horse before being transported to the nearby Haliburton Forest Mill. Using state of the art saws, each board is squared for timbers or sawn into boards for planking.

Famous quotes containing the word homes:
“Pharisaism, obtuseness and tyranny reign not only in the homes of merchants and in jails; I see it in science, in literature, and among youth. I consider any emblem or label a prejudice.... My holy of holies is the human body, health, intellect, talent, inspiration, love and the most absolute of freedoms, the freedom from force and falsity in whatever forms they might appear.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
