A second life for trees

So, what happens when trees die? Usually, if they haven't fallen on their own, they are cut down and thrown through a wood-chipper. There is a Minnesota company that has another option. Wood From The Hood is a Minneapolis based company that takes the wood from downed or condemned trees and uses them to make flooring, coaster sets, cribbage boards, picture frames, and cutting boards. They also do custom work and have wood available for projects.
