Cedar Post Fence
Cedar post fence is a Hill Country tradition. Built from locally harvested cedar posts with barbed wire or field fence, it blends into the landscape and holds up to the elements without chemical treatment. Cedar is naturally rot-resistant and insect-resistant, making it ideal for the rocky, rough terrain of the Texas Hill Country where treated lumber posts would split and fail. It's the fence your grandfather built — and it's still standing.
