Owned and operated by Jim and Karen Verboom, Nova Tree Company, Inc., produces lumber, landscaping mulch, post & rail fencing, and other wood products at our sawmill in Glenholme, Nova Scotia.

We service both wholesale and retail customers across Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island.

With over 35 years of experience, we are one of Nova Scotia’s longest-running mid-sized wood production companies. Being mid-sized allows us to source our logs locally and offer customized dimensions, specifications, and species for a wide variety of orders.

In addition to our specialty products, we carry accessories such as industrial-grade landscape fabric and deer fencing as well as the largest selection of FastenMaster screws in Nova Scotia.
