Because ours is shipped to China Vietnam?Bought some premium pine for shelving in my house today at Lowes. It was expensive. I looked at the tag on the lumber and it said prodcuct of New Zealand. Maybe I am just naive and don't understand the lumber business but why can we not get our own wood from here in the states. We have plenty of loblolly pine right here in Virginia. Hundreds of thousands of acres across of good yellow pine just in this state. Why would Lowes have a company on the other side of the world ship pine lumber to America?
I am just trying to understand this???
