This week's episode we talk with Rick from Wood From The Hood -- a sawmill and wood business in Minneapolis. They've been around for almost 10 years and he talks about how he started the business on a dare.... and how that was one of the best decisions ever. Wood From The Hood has been able to skillfully outsource some of the sawmilling so they can stay focused on drying, processing, and sales of wood products. They have 2 main revenue streams, small wood products like cutting boards that sell in over 50 locations in their city. The other is working on architectural products like tables and flooring. They've also been lucky enough to work on large scale products involving the city government and sporting centers. This is a super inspiring episode.
