Woodshack

For orders of logs, please call John on 07797 819997. Timber sales on weekdays only.

Acorn Woodshack, a social enterprise, is a wood recycling workshop where furniture and quality gifts are made from timber that would otherwise have been thrown away. We de-nail the wood and cut it to length, to be sold from our store or made into new high-quality products.

The Woodshack is now a zero-waste operation. We use unserviceable timber to make kindling and even sawdust is collected to make briquettes, which are sold as winter fuel.

Who benefits?

You do, with great prices for timber and quality products to buy! But the Woodshack also benefits Jersey in a number of ways:

• Creates jobs and training opportunities for people with a disability or long-term health condition.
• Reduces the amount of material imported into the Island.
• Reduces local waste and carbon emissions.
• Conserves a natural resource.
• Provides affordable, upcycled wooden furniture and building materials for low income families and local small business.
• Generates an income which all goes back to opportunities for Islanders with a disability.
