Elite Development NW and Withers Lumber collaborated to create a POD(Partners on Dwelling) for the Kenton's Women's Village. The village is designed to offer safety, security and community to women who are in need of emergency housing. The village houses offer residents the privacy and comfort of having their own home while they work torwards more permanent housing, education, and employment. Withers Lumber was happy to join the team of volunteers, businesses, and community organizations that work to make the Kenton Women's Village possible.

"Withers Lumber allows me to treat their place like it's my own," says John Knebes from Big Sky Construction. "Because I had limited room at my job site, my guys had to panelized the walls of this apartment complex in the huge gravel parking area at the Withers' Brooks/Salem lumber yard. Then we trucked the finished walls to South Salem. Withers Lumber really bends over backwards for their contractors - from the day I started working with John Gooley over 20 years ago it's been that way. I get my paneling, lumber and lots more from Withers Lumber Yard."


Partners with the Mt. Angel Abbey Benedictine Brewery

Mt. Angel Abbey Benedictine Brewery

Starting in 2015, Withers Lumber had the honor of partnering with the Mt. Angel Abbey to develop the Benedictine Brewery, one of only three breweries in the United States owned and operated by Monks. Over 100 volunteers gathered, including VP of Sales at Withers Lumber and multi-generational Mt. Angel samaritan, John Gooley. No equipment was used in the actual building process; only the hands of monks, seminarians, and other volunteers to lift beams and other materials in constructing the brewery were used. "In the course of the brisk Saturday, what started as a bare concrete slab quickly became a structural frame with building blocks that defined the overall shape of the Brewery and Taproom. The frame was built from 14,000 board feet of Douglas fir harvested from the Abbey tree farm. It now serves as a welcoming place to gather, taste and believe.

Withers Lumber partnered with Rich Duncan Construction and Extreme Makeover to rebuild the boys' dorm at the Oregon School for the Deaf in Salem. At the same time, the school's haunted house was rebuilt, which brings in a major source of funds for the school each Halloween. The entire project was donated- every bit of labor, lumber, nails, plywood, siding, hardware and more. John Gooley, Withers Lumber V.P. Sales coordinated the donation of $54,000 in materials with local companies such as Big Sky Construction, Freres Lumber, Hampton Lumber, Boise Cascade, Mary's River, and many, many more generous suppliers. Withers Lumber also provided the space at our Brooks/Salem lumber yard where over-sized 20-foot wide panels were first built by Big Sky Construction, then transported by Freres Lumber's trucks to the school. A tremendous team effort!

Constructing this McDonald's in Fort Vancouver, Washington was a fast track project and Withers provided our materials on time and on budget!" -Rich Duncan Construction and sub-contact framer Don Drulinner.
