Today, we honor an incredible milestone: Roy Cummings Jr.’s 57 years of service at Cummings Lumber! Though now enjoying his well-deserved retirement, Roy’s journey is a powerful testament to dedication and visionary leadership, inspiring countless people along the way.

Roy started with Cummings Lumber back in 1968 and rose to the role of president, shaping the company and the industry. His entrepreneurial drive didn’t stop there; he went on to establish Barefoot Flooring in 2001 and the Barefoot Pellet Company in 2005.

Roy’s approach—combining time-honored values with innovative thinking—helped these companies flourish and set a high bar for excellence. His legacy is one of unwavering commitment, integrity, and inspiration.

Thank you, Roy, for your remarkable 57 years and for showing all of us the enduring impact of hard work and truly visionary leadership.

The Pennsylvania FFA State Officer Team recently got a firsthand look at the hardwood industry’s inner workings. On September 4, 2025, they visited Barefoot Brand Hardwood Flooring Plant, courtesy of the Hardwood Development Council, to learn about the vital opportunities and challenges facing this sector.

During the tour, the officers witnessed the full transformation of hardwood lumber into finished flooring, gaining valuable insight into the manufacturing process. The visit also highlighted the importance of sustainable forestry practices, a core focus for the industry.

The tour also provided a look at a unique use for wood waste. The officers watched the production of Sunfire Heating Blocks, which are 100% compressed sawdust blocks used for home heating and cooking. Each officer even got to take one home with them! To learn more about Sunfire Heating Blocks, please visit their website at https://sunfireblocks.com/.

This valuable educational experience was made possible by the Pennsylvania FFA Foundation, the FFA State Officer Team, the Hardwood Development Council, Darrel Showers, Mike Brammer, and Rachel Newberry.

Today, we’re celebrating a truly remarkable milestone: Scott Cummings is marking his 32nd year with Cummings Lumber Company! As the founder’s great-grandson, Scott has continued a proud family tradition of excellence, taking the helm as President in 2014.

Under Scott’s leadership, the company has continued to thrive, upholding the undying commitment to provide customers with Cummings Lumber quality service and a quality product – a tradition that has spanned four generations.

Scott’s dedication was never more evident than in June 2024, when our mill faced a devastating fire. Through that incredibly challenging time, Scott’s unwavering direction and leadership were instrumental in guiding us through. We, the employees, want to express our deepest gratitude to Scott for getting us through that difficult period and leading the charge in rebuilding.
