For more than 60 years – starting long before it became popular to build green – Kuhns Bros. Log Homes (KBLH) has been promoting sustainable lifestyles in America by specializing in the custom manufacture of environmentally friendly log homes. Built from the most renewable resource on earth, timber, log homes reduce the environmental impact of construction, are energy-efficient and provide owners with a unique “back-to-nature” connection.

Through Kuhns Bros. Log Homes, individuals and families seeking healthy, comfortable and affordable custom homes enjoy the opportunity to have a well-designed and environmentally sound home, indoors and out. In addition to being resource-efficient, log homes also provide owners with a good return on their investment while improving personal productivity.

A family-owned and-operated company, Kuhns Bros. starts its commitment to the environment with the heart of the enterprise: trees. Not only does the company replenish forests after harvesting, its foresters oversee the log-harvesting process with care. These strategies ensure a steady supply of quality logs while protecting the forest habitat and natural resources such as streams and wildlife.

Kuhns Bros. also understands and cares about protecting this fragile interdependence between man and his environment so forest resources are not wasted. Through Kuhns Bros. Enterprises, KBLH’s parent company, markets have been found for every tree harvested, from prime veneer logs to firewood, to create everything from classic log cabins to mulch. Even sawdust from the manufacturing and milling processes is collected and used by local farmers for livestock bedding and for other productive uses.
