Cracker Sawmill
About Cracker Sawmill
Cracker Sawmill is a full-service sawmill and lumber milling operation at Williston in Levy County, North Central Florida, listed here from the Primary Forest Products Network mill directory, which records it as a sawmill taking cypress, hardwood and softwood. It trades as Cracker Sawmill / D&J Lumber and describes itself as “a specialty mill offering the finest cypress and southern yellow pine products to a wide variety of customers nationwide,” committed “to large and small customers alike” to provide “top quality Cypress and Southern Yellow Pine lumber, with excellent customer service, along with sawmill direct pricing.” In its own words, “We specialize in Cypress and Southern Yellow Pine.” The product range it publishes runs to bandsaw mill cut lumber, rough and finished lumber, a wide variety of milling options for interior and exterior use, all sizes of tongue and groove for ceilings, walls, flooring and radius edge decking, exterior log siding in both cypress and pine in 6-inch and 8-inch widths, cypress lumber for board and batten construction, and rustic hand-peeled cypress trees and swell bottom decorative cypress trees. Terrell “Bubba” Howell, who the mill says has worked in the logging and timber industry for over 37 years, opened Cracker Sawmill in Williston in 2002 to combine his logging and timber experience; the mill is described as the cornerstone of Howell Logging and Cracker Style Log Homes, and Bubba and Dixie Howell built their own log home within walking distance of it on the same property. The operation sits on a 120-acre tract with over 100,000 square feet under roof dedicated to sawmill and milling operations — a statement about the size of the mill site, not about any tract the mill will or will not take wood from. Hours are given as 7:30am to 5:00pm Monday through Friday on the home page and 7:30am to 4:30pm Eastern on the about page, with the mill closed Saturday and Sunday “so we can be with our families.” (source: crackersawmill.com, read 22 September 2026)
