CELEBRATING 80 YEARS!

In 2026, Big Creek Lumber celebrates 80 years of serving our customers, communities and caring for redwood forests.

Founded in 1946 by brothers Bud and Lud McCrary plus their Dad and thier uncle, Big Creek began with hard work, strong values, and a deep respect for the land. Their belief that forests should be responsibly managed helped shape a company culture centered on stewardship long before sustainability became common practice.

We have grown from a small family operation into a trusted source for redwood, lumber, fencing, decking, har

dware, tools and building materials across Central California. This includes six retail lumber yards: Atwater, Half Moon Bay, Paso Robles, Santa Cruz, Vallejo and Watsonville.

Thanks for being a part of this, we are looking forward to the next 80 years.
