Correspondent Tom Wilmer visits with Sean O’Brien, owner of Pacific Coast Lumber in Paso Robles, California.
Join O’Brien to discover the world of urban salvage reclaimed wood where reuse of trees destroyed by forest fires and windstorms mitigates carbon sequestration.
We’ll also discover the beauty of reclaimed oak, cypress, walnut, redwood, cedar and other beautiful woods native to California that live a second life as flooring, furniture, countertops and more.
