Our Story
A woodshop in the Ozarks
Phelan Wood started as one retired IT guy, a woodshop, and a lot of quiet. Cedar Freshies turned it into something more.
How It Started
From So-Cal to North Arkansas
"I left Southern California five years ago for the deep woods of North Arkansas. The woodshop was just my playground — until Cedar Freshies happened, and everything changed."
Doug Phelan, Founder

No sprays or chemicals
Just the wood's own natural oils.
