Growing Our Roots The WOOD SHED Lumber & Hardware Supply has teamed up as a business partner with the local elementary classroom.

These amazing children bless us beyond measures by showering us with thoughtful thank you cards and artwork. We love being in the classroom!

The Eiserer Family It's all hands on deck in the store or in the community. Our little family grew to five just after purchasing the business and couldn't be more excited to learn and grow together. For years Porter, Cecily and Novah assist in the family business by sharing our story on KMZU and KRLI radio, putting up the truck orders, and assisting customers. In 2021 the Eiserer family grew to six with a second son, Marlo.

Our Customers are the Best Customers The WOOD SHED team enjoys entertaining our customers every chance we can. Fish Fry, Chilli & Cinnamon Rolls, Traeger grilled chicken, deer, or brisket. You never know when the Traeger grill just might be smokin'. Without our customers, our growth as a business wouldn't be possible: thank you! In 2021, Wood Shed expanded to Richmond and Concordia, MO with the purchase of the Derstler Lumber businesses. The growth allows for more opportunities of growth for its employees. It also opened the business up for better buying opportunities which helps better serve the communities. In 2023, Wood Shed will be expanding to Cameron and Warrensburg, MO. The need to find more like minded home improvement folks to help serve our customers has arrived.
