Native Woods

About Native Woods

Native Woods is a sawing and millwork shop in Rock Island, Illinois, run by Mike Lawrence for 22 years. It's not a timber buyer or logging outfit. It's a mill: they take in local wood and turn it into something you can use. Their work includes custom sawing and drying, custom millwork, reproduction millwork, live edge slabs, tables, bartops, and countertops. They'll also plane and sand lumber you bring them. They call themselves "specialists in recycling the urban forest," and they say "we supply recycled local lumber from the urban waste stream," which tells you where a lot of their wood comes from and what they're set up to do with it. They serve the Quad Cities area and work out of their shop at 530 20th Street in downtown Rock Island. They're on call seven days a week, by appointment, and offer free price quotes. This fits a landowner who has trees down, or wants lumber sawn, dried, and turned into flooring, cabinets, or a table, rather than someone looking to sell standing timber or have a tract logged. If your need is milling and finished wood products in the Rock Island area, this is a shop built for that job. From native-woods.net, read 10 October 2026.
