Our repurposed collections

Repurposed doghouses
Built from high-quality reclaimed lumber and construction materials. Each shelter provides sturdy protection for your pet, with adaptable dimensions available upon request.
Custom chicken coops
Constructed with donated structural timber and secure wiring. Sizing can be adapted to your flock's needs, creating a safe, eco-friendly coop with rustic character.
Artisan fordite jewelry & art
Cut and polished from dense layers of salvaged, cured industrial automotive paint. These stunning, vibrant pieces show off unique stratified patterns that can never be duplicated.
Sustainable materials, transformative recovery
We believe nothing and no one should go to waste. Through partnerships with local builders and community donors, we turn discarded materials into meaningful craftsmanship and empowering employment.
How your support builds skills
Our farm participants sort, clean, dimension, and assemble every structure and craft piece. They earn a living wage of $18 per hour while mastering practical carpentry, tool safety, and collaborative problem-solving. This steady vocational training pairs with our plant, animal, and art therapy programs to help individuals gain the independence, confidence, and certificates needed to build fulfilling lives.
Custom orders and community sourcing
Our materials come directly from generous community donations, Howie's, and regional construction contractors. Because we work with reclaimed supplies, each doghouse and chicken coop carries its own unique visual character. If you need specific dimensions, layout tweaks, or custom sizing to fit your space, we accommodate custom requests for an additional fee.
