1% for the planet

Apr 19

I just received this email from this wonderful organization that I'm so proud to be a small part of. If you are looking for an environmental organization to be a part of, I'd suggest you take a look at these guys:

Dear Robin,

Thank you for sending in your 2009 membership certification materials, along with your 2010 renewal dues! All materials have been received, and your membership is now up to date and in good standing - thank you! We sincerely appreciate your continued support. It speaks volumes of our members to see so many continuing their 1% commitment even in the midst of such tough economic times. We, and over 2000 environmental organizations, thank you greatly for enabling us to continue the great work we do.

We hope this note finds you well and that we can all look forward to this next year bringing some wonderful business to your door!

Please never hesitate to reach out with questions, concerns, or to just say hello!

Best,

Robin Wade

Robin Wade Furniture is a celebration of nature—a melding of a forward thinking commitment to the environment and a quiet, harmonious design aesthetic. From his "slow studio" in North Alabama, award-winning wood artist Robin Wade designs and crafts one-of-a-kind handmade furniture. Years before a piece is ready to enter a client's home or a gallery, the process begins—naturally—with the tree. Sustainably harvested, each specimen of hardwood is flitch sawn into natural-edge wood slabs, debarked by hand with a draw knife, and stacked to dry, usually for years, before the final cure in the kiln. From here, Wade and his team use both hand and power tools to bring Wade's vision to life, and then finish each piece with a hand-rubbed oil blend. Each organic furniture creation by Robin Wade Furniture balances the raw, natural beauty of environmentally, locally sourced hardwoods with minimally invasive, clean lines—a juxtaposition Wade calls both rustic and modern. “I haven’t yet found a better artist than nature,” he says.
