Big Black Walnuts Timber Company

Our Story

At Big Black Walnuts Timber Company, we don’t just sell wood—we tell stories. Each live edge slab of black walnut we offer is a piece of history, forged by nature and crafted by time. Whether you’re a woodworker, furniture maker, or DIY enthusiast, our slabs are more than raw materials; they are the beginnings of something remarkable, something with character and a story to tell.

About us

Nestled in the heart of the Midwest, we’ve made it our mission to bring the beauty of black walnut from the forest to your home. There’s something almost magical about the rich, dark hues, the swirling grain patterns, and the unique knots that make every slab one-of-a-kind. Our wood is more than lumber—it’s art, a living legacy of the forest, waiting to be transformed into stunning furniture, statement pieces, or functional works of craftsmanship.

What sets us apart? We’re passionate about sustainability, sourcing each black walnut slab responsibly, ensuring that the forest continues to thrive while we bring its natural beauty to the world. Plus, we like to keep things personal. We believe in building relationships with our customers—sharing tips, inspiration, and, yes, even a few woodworking secrets along the way. We want to be more than a supplier. We aim to be your partner in creativity, providing you with the finest quality timber that elevates your projects to new heights.

Whether you’re crafting a dining table that will be the heart of your home or building shelves that will stand the test of time, we’re here to supply the soul of your project: black walnut that’s as strong as it is beautiful. Let’s build something incredible together.

Big Black Walnuts Timber Company—where nature meets craftsmanship, and every slab has a story to tell.
