M&N Supplies American Softwood Species
M&N American Woods can supply fine quality softwoods. Our supply is sourced from Oregon, Washington and British Columbia Canada.
In most home centers, you'll find two predominant types of softwood lumber: SPF, and (yellow) pine. SPF is an acronym that stands for spruce, (white) pine and (Douglas) fir.
| Lumber marked as SPF could be any of these three species. It is quite light in color and growth rings are typically rather widely spaced. While SPF makes up the great majority of softwoods sold in the United States today, depending on your location, you likely will often find other varieties such as yellow pine. |
