providing a second life
for our valleys most precious resource

Welcome to Les Bois Milling, Boise’s newest urban sawmill. We specialize in live edge slabs from trees collected and milled right here in the City of Trees. I know what you’re asking yourself, what does “Les Bois” mean? Well as a Boise native let me tell you what I learned in elementary school. This valley was settled by French/Canadian fur trappers in the early 1800’s as the Oregon Trail was being forged. When they came down off the rolling foot hills in covered wagons for the first time they exclaimed “Les Bois, Les Bois!”. Which translates to, “The Woods, The Woods”. They knew then as we know now that the trees of this valley are special and one of our most precious resources.
