Black Locust Lumber proudly supplied premium deck boards for The Episcopal Academy in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, helping to transform the school’s new playground into a safe, functional, and visually striking outdoor environment. Our decking solutions were specifically chosen for their exceptional durability, natural resistance to decay and wear, and the timeless beauty of Black Locust wood. These qualities make our deck wood an ideal choice for high-traffic areas like playgrounds, walkways, and gathering spaces, where safety and longevity are essential. The Episcopal Academy’s new playground features thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces that encourage play, learning, and social interaction. The deck boards from Black Locust Lumber provide a strong and resilient surface that can withstand the daily activity of students while maintaining its natural charm. Unlike many other materials, our decking is designed to age gracefully, requiring minimal maintenance while offering long-term performance and aesthetic appeal. Our deck wood contributes not only to the functionality of the playground but also to its environmental sustainability. Black Locust is a highly renewable and eco-friendly hardwood, known for its low environmental footprint and superior longevity. By choosing these deck boards, The Episcopal Academy ensures that their investment in outdoor spaces is both responsible and durable, combining practicality with elegance. In addition to playground surfaces, our decking is versatile enough for seating areas, walkways, and outdoor learning environments, allowing the academy to create a cohesive and inviting campus landscape. Each piece of deck wood is crafted to highlight the natural grain and color variations of Black Locust, adding warmth and sophistication to the overall design. This project demonstrates how high-quality deck boards and deck wood can elevate educational outdoor spaces, transforming them into safe, sustainable, and beautiful environments for students. By incorporating Black Locust Lumber’s decking solutions, The Episcopal Academy has created a playground that is not only functional and long-lasting but also a welcoming space where students can enjoy the outdoors and connect with nature.
