Furniture From The BarnA damaged 1813 Chester County barn gave Furniture From The Barn its second life: since 2006, Michael and Kelly Kelly have turned salvaged barn boards and American hardwoods into custom, handcrafted furniture. The family-owned Nottingham, Pennsylvania, business combines Michael’s 38 years of carpentry experience with Kelly’s design and finishing guidance, while three generations contribute to the operation. Its pieces are made to order, with reclaimed wood preserving the marks and patina of Pennsylvania’s agricultural past.NOTTINGHAM, PA
Cherry AcresCherry Acres turns reclaimed barn wood and live-edge slabs into custom furniture at its downtown Lititz showroom. The business grew from Lancaster County builder Craig Wolf’s habit of salvaging lumber from old buildings and hand-crafting pieces for local shows, and it now works with Pennsylvania Amish craftsmen on distinctive furniture such as Dutch-inspired shutter cabinets. Its reclaimed wood may have spent 100 to 200 years in old buildings before being selected and finished for a new life.LITITZ, PA
