Raising Grain Woodwork

About Us

Raising Grain Woodwork is a one person, handcrafted woodworking business based in Holdrege, Nebraska, built on a deep respect for quality materials and honest craftsmanship. With over 25 years of woodworking experience, each piece is thoughtfully designed and made by hand, one at a time, never mass produced.

What sets Raising Grain Woodwork apart is a true “tree-to-product” approach. The wood used is locally sourced, milled from trees into lumber, and carefully crafted into finished pieces right here in Nebraska. This hands-on process ensures that every item carries its own character, story, and connection to the land it came from.

From selecting complementary woods like walnut and oak to applying a handmade, food-grade beeswax and mineral oil finish, every step is done with intention. Even the finish is made in-house, allowing complete control over quality, safety, and durability.

Raising Grain Woodwork is rooted in the belief that well-made wooden goods should be functional, timeless, and built to last. Each piece reflects a commitment to craftsmanship, local sourcing, and creating products that can be enjoyed every day.
