Know Your Product: Supporting a Fellow Local Business

All of our rough-sawn hardwood lumber comes from a local PA lumber mill, the Alderfer Lumber Company. 
We are exceptionally proud to carry the materials cut, dried and prepared by people we know and trust. 


Alderfer Lumber has been in business since 1993, and founded by Randall Alderfer who used a team of horses to extract lumber and transport it to his mill. Randall's brother John soon became a partner in the business, and the lumber mill continued to grow: from a team of horses, to a lumber kiln, to three more kilns. The Alderfer Lumber Company takes great pride in having quality control over their products "from the standing tree to the finished board." 


This new partnership between Lewisburg Builders Supply and Alderfer Lumber Company is sure to bring new opportunities for woodworkers in the greater Susquehanna Valley

Hardwood Selections: 
Please note that all lumber is a natural product, and may be subject to inconsistencies in a variety of measures.

Both LBSC and ALC are committed to providing the customer with the best material available for their project. 

Due to factors such as tree size, some species may only be available in slab form, while exotic lumber may only be available in boards.
