My father Dave Collins and his brother Mike started a steam-powered sawmill in 1981. After Mike moved away from Kerikeri, my mother Maree and my Dad ran the sawmill together.
I am going to write a book about it!
In the meantime, here's some links to content I found on the internet about the mill. Please note that the mill has now been sold to Max Birt.
