Quality Work, Steeped in Tradition
The owner of Garrison Woodworking is Adam Stauble. His family has a long tradition of journeyman in a variety of trades, and he has learned the values of quality and fine craftsmanship from a very young age.
His interest in woodworking began during his high school years. He subsequently excelled while attending the Cabinetmaking program at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology in Calgary, Alberta.
Adam chose the name "Garrison Woodworking" to honor his family's military heritage. Many of his family members have served their country in world war two, at home and abroad, and in many other conflicts up to present day. He has carried on this tradition himself by joining 41 Combat Engineer Regiment which operates out of Garrison Calgary. The core values of the army are reflected in the dedication, and commitment Adam shows in every project he undertakes.
Its all in the Details
Built Green
At Garrison Woodworking we care a great deal about building furniture that minimizes the use of harsh chemicals. We employ water based lacquers and food safe waxes so the furniture we deliver does as much as possible to safeguard the health of the air and environment of our clients homes and offices.
Our suppliers buy wood from mills with replant programs in place. For our log furniture we harvest our own logs in the Alberta Forest Reserves. In our shop operations, we generate wood scrap and we take time to bag up this clean wood scrap and sell it for a nominal fee to local residents and to clients to use as clean burning fire wood. We carefully sort out larger pieces of wood scrap and box it up for donations to local crafters, and we bag sawdust and offer it to local area farmers and gardeners to bed animals and plants.
Just a few small things Garrison Woodworking is doing to help the environment.
