FBT Sawmill Lumber and Country Furniture started 25 years ago out of a woodworking passion of Erwin Bonestroo. In 2008 a fire destroyed the business and the family had to make a decision to continue or not. Erwin’s daughter encouraged him to continue to live his dream, his son Mitch joined the business, and the surrounding community rallied behind them to reopen the business. The business has grown to work with people in Oklahoma, Iowa, Illinois, South Dakota, Minnesota and Arizona. Mitch operates the business with 4 employees. He enjoys collaborating with a small group of woodworkers in the area and bringing artistic value to each creation. Mitch relies on word of mouth for advertising and believes in showing appreciation to his employees. Thank you Mitch for sharing your business with SWMN CEO!
