Meghan Brewer

At 14, Meghan began working at the local sawmill that her father Rob was running. Sawdust was already in her veins as they say, and her vocation was set. At 18, Meghan was the youngest certified female hardwood and softwood lumber inspector in the world and spent many years using those skills in various area sawmills. Once Rob started his own wholesale lumber company, Meghan joined the team a year later, starting in sales and accounting, and eventually moving up to ownership. These days, she can mostly be found sitting behind a computer screen, managing the day to day business operations of the company, but she still enjoys going out to flip a few boards every now and again.

Meghan enjoys reading, her dogs and running her daughter around. If you would like to reach out to Meghan, here is her contact information:

Rob Brewer, in Memoriam

In Loving Memory of Rob, who passed on April 1, 2020 and will be sorely missed by all.

Rob started working with wood at the tender age of 14, nailing pallets. He quickly learned that wasn’t something he wanted to do forever, so when the owner of the company asked if anyone was interested in working down at the sawmill, Rob quickly jumped at the chance.

After graduating high school and serving his country in the US Army, Rob held many positions within the forest products industry, including kiln operator, general manager, logger, lumber inspector and owner.

Rob was passionate about all things related to lumber, which didn’t leave him with a lot of free time; however he enjoyed classic cars, his family and Blues music.

Carl graduated from Paul Smiths College in 1976 and has enjoyed a long career in the lumber trades ever since. Carl is an experienced mill manager, lumber inspector and sales person, primarily concentrating on the Northern hardwood species. A longtime colleague of Rob’s, Carl became an independent contractor for us in 2000.

Carl is an avid outdoorsman, and in his free time he enjoys hunting, fishing, practicing his faith, and spending time with his family. If you would like to reach out to Carl, here is his contact information:

Chris Chamberlain

Chris began his career in the forest products industry as a young teenager, working at a friend’s small mill. He graduated high school and continued in the lumber arena as a logger, focusing on logging with horses. During that time Chris also added a portable sawmill to be able to work during mud season. He used that tool to learn all he could about primary manufacturing which is what led him towards the lumber manufacturing side of the business. Eventually Chris made his mark as the operations manager for a very large flooring manufacturer, concentrating on old growth, reclaimed, and wide plank flooring.

Given his years of experience in the manufacturing field gives Chris an advantage when you place your orders with him. He knows the importance of price, lead times, and communication, and gathers great satisfaction from seeing an order through, start to finish.

Chris enjoys being outside through all four seasons that New England has to offer, spending time with his children, and gardening. If you would like to reach out to Chris, here is his contact information:
