Material: Trying to find a good source for wood

I'm planning to build a skin-on-frame kayak. I need help on finding a good source for wood. I plan to use Sitka Spruce for the gunwales, hull stringers, keel, and masik; Western Red Cedar for the deck beams and stringers; and Alaskan Yellow Cedar for the ribs. I live in Northern California (Antioch). Can anyone help point me in the right directions? I would really appreciate it.
