BROOM MAKING
Traditional Appalachian Style
The broom making department is headed by my lovely wife, Gabriella and supervised by our son.
Broom making has been in the Appalachian mountains since they were first settled. The craft had a resurgence during the great depression as a source supplementary income for families.
Today, these brooms add practical and aesthetic value to any home.
