Forty-five employees will return to work early next month when the J.D. Irving Forest Products sawmill reopens nearly four months after shutting down.
Company officials announced Friday, May 16th, that its Pinkham Lumber Mill, located in Nashville Plantation, will reopen June 3. Two weeks after that, another 25 employees will return to work at the planer mill, which finishes lumber.
When the mill shut down in February, company officials blamed poor market demand and depressed lumber prices. The company said demand for lumber has increased.
