I was starting to look hope until I came across Maine Woodworks. Not only did I love their selection of Maine Made Beds. I also fell in love with their mission. Maine Woodworks is a non-profit with a mission of employing an integrated workforce, made of people with and without disabilities.

Once I found the story of Maine Woodworks, I knew that’s where I was going to buy my Maine made bed. Once I started to dive into their product selection I was even more intrigued. I learned that each of the bed options came with a large color palette to choose from. I loved this, because I customize my Maine made bed to suite the style of our rooms. To take it even one step further. They even let you choose what style of bed you buy, either standard or platform. The surprises didn’t stop there. I was even allowed to choose what kind of paneling the bed had. I was able to choose from Shiplap, barnboard, beadbaord or smooth.
