Manchester Wood: American Made Furniture

Manchester Wood designs and produces quality, affordable, eco-friendly solid wood American furniture in the Green Mountains of Vermont and Adirondack foothills of New York.

The American Made Christmas

Although the title speaks solely to Christmas, we feel all Holidays celebrated this time of year should strongly consider gifts to be Made in the USA. That may sound flag totting, a bit arrogant, or not Worldly enough in approach, but the American working class needs your help more than ever before, and what better time to offer your support than in this season of giving.

ABC World News with Diane Sawyer ran an article last week citing that if every American spent $64 on US Made goods that would create 200,000 jobs. And that’s not a lot of money to spend, considering the average American pays out $704 on shopping this time of year.

Now our little American made furniture plant has been picking up steam lately, and we thank you dearly for that. Our workforce has just entered full-time work again after several months on and off with part-time employment, many struggling to make ends meet. To say the times have been easy would be a lie, to say they’ve been a learning experience and a testament to the good we as people bestow, would be accurate and true.

Help us and other businesses producing American made products thrive and succeed in a Worldly model that so desperately needs our involvement.

In the same realm as energy efficient appliances, organic foods, alternative medicines, American made falls right into the same category as one in need of desperate action and understanding.

If you’re looking to gift or receive incredible American made solid wood furniture, look no further than Manchester Wood. If you have ideas beyond furniture, and want to help support other goods and services with a Made in USA seal, visit our good friends AmericansWorking.com for an extensive database on US Made businesses.

Happy Holidays, and God bless, from all of at Manchester Wood.

Our Employee Dinner: December 4th

Our Employee Dinner was December 4th at the Barn Restaurant in Pawlet, Vermont (pictured above) where we enjoyed each others company in holiday cheer. Aside from our blessed meal and time together, we passed out Christmas mugs and candy to our loyal workforce family as we enter this season of Spirit and Giving.

Thank you to our employees for this time together! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

American Made Christmas Shopping: the People’s Stimulus Package

ABC World News with Diane Sawyer’s “Made in America” series has continued far past the coverage Manchester Wood received as one of the “Made in USA” companies that supplied products towards the renovating of a Dallas home earlier this year with all American made items.

This holiday season they have taken an in-depth look at what Americans can do to help our domestic economy as we shop for gifts this Christmas.

A few interesting facts they discovered:

In the 1960s, nine out of every 10 products Americans bought for the holidays were made in America. Today easily more than half of what we buy is foreign-made.

If Americans spent $64 this holiday on an item made in America, we could create 200,000 jobs right now.

If it still sounds like a decent chunk of change consider that the average American spends $700 on Christmas or holiday gifts.

We believe wholeheartedly in this work above as they research the issues and discover the solutions towards a recovering economy. As we discussed in our previous blog, “The Gift That Keeps Giving: The Holidays for Manchester Wood,” the Christmas season to us a symbol of Gratitude and thanks for the gifts bestowed upon us.

In buying our American made solid wood furniture you can contribute the support of double to six-times the efforts they found! You can truly help stimulate American business, help get more people back to work, and not only feel good about that, but also that you have an heirloom quality item that you’ll proudly display and use, not a cheap throw-away, but something handcrafted with pride.

Buy furniture from Manchester Wood today. Let’s create jobs instead of losing them. Give the gift that keeps giving.

Happy holidays from all of us at Manchester Wood, God bless you.
