Juniper Timbers: planting bed and retaining wall

05 Sep Juniper Timbers: planting bed and retaining wall

Hi ho.  It’s me again.  I made a short movie about a small project we did for a customer who found, then hired us from doing a google search on working with Juniper lumber.  Maybe you’ve already looked up Juniper lumber and know it’s a nuisance species here in the Pacific Northwest.  What you may not know is how aromatic the lumber is.  It smells like a hiking trip in the sagelands (but it’s a dry heat) of Eastern Oregon.  It’s basically wonderful to smell but some squirrely stuff to force into a straight line.  The tradeoff is the two features.  One. we’re putting a use to an invasive nuisance plant, two is it has phenomenal rot-resistant characteristics.  Oh, it’s also not chemically treated, so make that 9 features.  Math are hard. Enjoy the drama:
