Five western red cedars in Brian's backyard.

Five Cedars


The number “five” (5) is prominent across the world’s art, religions, mathematics, hands, and feet.

For all it provides, the western red cedar is known as the “tree of life” in many of the indigenous tribes of the Pacific Northwest.

These two elements symbolize the holistic relationship we strive to have with our clients.

* It should also be noted that the founder has five large western red cedars in his backyard.
