The Reidhead's are recipients of a SWSFP and Forest Products Labs grants for 2006 to help with their new sawmill operation in Eagar. Using material from Future Forests, LLC and the USFS Stewardship contract, their operations will be utilizing large quantities of small diameter material. Their new sawmill is customized to handle small diameter logs, and expected volumes of 5 to 7 million board feet annually. They are working on a new kiln dryer to add to the merchantability of the end products, and have a separate planing mill on site to be able to produce higher grade material.
