The Introduction to Construction and Craft Trades for Women program recently had the privilege of visiting Chris Lahoud in Tecumseh for an exciting industry tour - and it did not disappoint! 🪵✨

Owner Chris and his team welcomed us warmly and gave participants an engaging look at their facility and operations. Highlights included a live demonstration of the planer and a walkthrough of how The Woodmill produces beautifully smooth, high-quality boards ready for any project. 💪🔨

This kind of real-world exposure is invaluable! It brings the trades to life and inspires the next generation of skilled women to see what’s possible. Thank you to the entire Woodmill team for your time, warmth, and expertise! 🙌
