The Lisnavagh Timber Project – Homegrown Sustainable Irish Wood

Sustainable Irish Hardwood

The Lisnavagh Timber Project grows, sources, conditions and supplies fully traceable and sustainable home-grown Irish hardwood timber to Ireland’s furniture makers and woodworkers.

We also design and produce beautiful bespoke furniture and woodwork projects from our workshop on the grounds of Lisnavagh Estate in Co. Carlow.

Our Services

Timber Supplies

We supply beautiful Irish-grown wood, air-dried or kiln-dried, rough-sawn or prepared to your specifications. Woods include oak, ash, beech, birch, elm, sycamore, chestnut, lime and many others.

Dimensioning & Preparation

For DIY enthusiasts, we can provide you with partly-prepared or fully-prepared timber to your specifications, so that you can take it home to your workshop and assemble your project yourself.

Bespoke Woodcraft Items

Our expert craftspeople can create any custom wood item for you – furniture, shelving, kitchen countertops, cabinetry, and more.

Bunbury Boards

Our sister site – since 2008, we’ve sold over 50,000 handcrafted chopping boards and kitchen products to customers around the world.

Build Responsibly

Rest assured that your project will use only 100% sustainable Irish wood, most of which comes from natural treefall here at Lisnavagh and the surrounding areas.

Thanks to our extensive tagging and database system, we operate what may well be the most traceable timber operation on the planet – certainly in Ireland. We can tell you exactly which tree provided your timber, how and why it came down, and what steps were taken to replant and renew the woods.

Our Story

My family has been stewards of the farm and woodlands at Lisnavagh since the 1670s. When I assumed responsibility for this storied property twenty years ago, I was amazed at the sheer volume of trees on our land that fell naturally or came down in storms.

I knew in my bones that this beautiful timber, some of it upwards of 150 years old, should not go to waste. The Lisnavagh Timber Project is the result! We put the same love and care into each piece of timber that we put into taking care of this beautiful land, so that future generations can continue to enjoy it.
