In this guide to hardwood lumber in Mississippi we’ve searched and have a hand selected list of stores that specialize in hardwoods for DIY and hobby woodworkers. From domestic and exotic hardwoods to specialty live edge slabs or reclaimed wood you should find a wood retailer near you.

First, though, there are three hurdles woodworkers face when searching for wood:

  1. Wholesale lumber stores won’t sell to hobbyists 
  2. Filtering out lumber yards that only sell 2×4’s and building products
  3. Finding unique hardwood sources like urban lumber, live edge slabs and certified exotic hardwoods.

Not finding what you need locally? Be sure to check out our guide to the best online hardwood sources:
