About Us
Edge and End creates beautiful woodworkings for your home or business that are aesthetically pleasing, exceptionally functional, and help to better the lives of others. Our pieces are crafted entirely by hand and customized to fit your particular vision. We proudly use only the highest quality, locally sourced, repurposed hardwoods. All of our finishes are natural and food-safe so you can feel good about what you’re bringing into your space.
Not only are our pieces exceptionally built, they are also crafted in collaboration with vulnerable members of our community. We work alongside New England nonprofits to create meaningful work experiences for adults with disabilities. Our mission is to teach trade skills, create employment opportunities, and build meaningful relationships with a community that we believe is vastly underserved. Our pilot agency partner is The Groden Network - Rhode Island’s premiere organization for the treatment of Autism and other developmental disabilities. Additionally, we have an active partnership with The Met School in Providence to help introduce high school students to new potential passions and opportunities, and to expand their knowledge of the trades.
We provide a supportive environment that individuals of all ages, levels of experience, and backgrounds can feel comfortable in. A custom creation from Edge and End will not only look and function perfectly in your space, it will also help make a positive impact in our community.
