Washington-Based Allen’s Mill Closes Doors

(June 11, 2015) Allen’s Mill, Forks, Wa., will be closing its doors.

Having started the business in 1937, founder Lloyd Allen, who passed away in 2012, started the company out as strictly a logging operation in Scappoose, Or. It has been at its present location since 1955.

Gerry Lane, general manager at Allen Logging Company, said they plan to process the current log inventory until they run out.  

The biggest issue, Lane expressed, is the Forest Service and DNR programs are failing to meet demand.
