National Forest Foundation:

Environmental stewardship is integral to our ethos. For every product made, we collaborate with the National Forest Foundation to plant a tree, contributing to the preservation and replenishment of our natural resources. As we sow seeds of faith and sustainability, we aspire for these trees to thrive by the rivers of water (Psalm 1:3), demonstrating our philanthropic initiatives and their sustained influence.

Meeting a Real Need

Homes are often filled with furniture that looks good on the showroom floor but falls short in real life—pieces that wear out too quickly, lack character, and don’t hold up to the everyday demands of family living. Too often, people settle for mass-produced furniture that sacrifices quality for convenience, leaving them with uncomfortable seating, fading fabrics, and designs that fail to reflect their personal style.

Why It Matters

Living with furniture that doesn’t last can mean constant replacements, wasted resources, and a home that never feels fully yours. For busy families, that adds unnecessary stress and expense. For interior designers, it can undermine the quality of their projects and leave clients unsatisfied. At its worst, poorly made furniture becomes a barrier to creating spaces where life’s most meaningful moments take place.
