Silver Saw Wood Products had a fun year growing and expanding with the local community. We had a great time meeting new friends and customers and learning about the great opportunities and events occurring all over the Treasure Valley. Thank you to all our customers for your support of our business and our cedar garden box products. You helped make 2022 a fantastic year and we look forward to working with you again in 2023.
Here are a few Silver Saw highlights from the year!
Boise Urban Garden School
We worked with Boise Urban Garden School (BUGS) in 2022 by building boxes for their preschool garden space. They developed a beautiful space used to help youngsters learn more about gardening and the importance of growing their own food.
Shade City Brewfest
This summer, we were connected with Shade City Brewfest, Lost Grove, and Gravity Payments to create a living wall for the brew fest at the Idaho Botanical Gardens. The living wall was a fun project because it was a change of pace in the shop and allowed us to build something so different from our standard cedar garden boxes. We also brought in our son to help us with the strategy and build, making this a true family project! In addition to great beer and other fun beverages from local vendors, Shade City Brewfest focused on sustainability, environmental impact, and waste reduction, which mirrors so many of our interests. It was so fun to be involved in their first annual event.
Vacationing in Stanley
One of our favorite places to vacation in Idaho is in the Stanley area. We had the opportunity to break from building cedar garden boxes a few times this year to camp around hot springs and lakes, fly fish the local rivers, and hike several trails…..always an adventure! We feel so fortunate to be able to escape into the mountains and enjoy so many of the great activities Idaho has to offer.
Retail Customer Highlights
D&B Supply
We thank D&B Supply for the opportunity to be represented in all 15 of their stores this year. It has been a wonderful experience working with all the corporate and store staff who really understand and share the value of Silver Saw Wood Products. The nursery staff at these stores are so knowledgeable and helpful with many of my garden needs! And, their plant offerings throughout the spring and summer have been my go-to.
North End Organic Nursery
Cedar garden boxes at North End Organic Nursery (NEON)? Yes! At Silver Saw Wood Products, we’ve loved our first year working with NEON and are so happy to have many sizes of our garden boxes at their store. We are so proud to have our boxes in local stores like NEON to be able to share them with even more of the community! NEON’s seed selection is the largest and most diverse I’ve seen in the Treasure Valley. And, their store is packed with great organic solutions for gardening. I even found my lady bugs there to help with my aphids invasion a few years ago.
