Old Barn offers a large selection of pecky cypress lumber and pecky cypress products. Pecky Cypress is a very unique reclaimed timber. The pecky log is a porous part of a tree that usually starts at the center of the tree. The pecks are caused by a fungus that only grows while the tree is alive. This fungus "stereum taxodil" usually takes 125 years to germinate inside the living tree. Once the process is started, tubular pockets are formed vertically up and down the tree. This fungus started the process of hallowing the log. This pecky wood is usually used for decorative purposes.
