What if we could build with trees without milling them into straight, uniform boards? On this episode, Neal Collins is joined by Amelia Baxter, co-founder and CEO of WholeTrees Structures, a company reimagining timber construction by using unmilled, round timber as structural elements in buildings.

Together, they explore how WholeTrees transforms the often overlooked “cull trees,” trees that would otherwise be removed as excess byproducts, from well-managed forests into beautiful, durable building components. The conversation goes beyond architecture and design to touch on stewardship, entrepreneurship, and how to invest for sector-wide growth of bio-based and natural building materials.

From the fascinating origin story of the company, the technology and systems that they have developed that has allowed them to scale internationally, to the investment and growth path the company is on, this is a great story that invites us to reconsider how and what we build with.
