Moms spend years making the meals, traditions, and memories we never forget. ❤️

This Mother’s Day, we’re offering beautiful hardwood cutting boards paired with custom engraved recipe plaques — meaningful gifts made to last.

Whether it’s her mom’s recipe, her famous cookies, or a family favorite everyone grew up on, this is more than a gift.

It’s a piece of home.

We’ll be making these using our current inventory of cutting boards, so availability is limited while supplies last.

Message us for details, pricing, or to have one made. 💐

Loved yesterday’s bat chat? Us too.

If you’ve been thinking about putting up a bat box, you can find them on our website — along with lots of other handcrafted items made right here at From the Thicket.

We’re always happy to answer questions if you need a hand.

DID YOU KNOW?! 🦇

Brown bats are common in southern Ontario, and a single bat can eat hundreds of insects in an hour -- making them amazing natural pest control around your yard.

That’s one reason we think bat houses are such a great addition to an outdoor space.

Even better, the bat houses we make are listed in Canadian Wildlife Federation bat house resources, which makes them a meaningful wildlife-friendly addition to any property. 🦇

Our latest project is now on display at the Lincoln Museum & Cultural Centre!
We had the privilege of recreating a beehive based on Joseph Bradt’s 1866 patent, “Improvement in Bee-hives.” Bradt, a native of Jordan, was deeply involved in beekeeping, and his design was an early innovation in hive construction.
Rebuilding the hive using historical specifications was an adventure. Materials have changed over time, and some details were missing from the original documentation, but we used our experience with historical projects to stay as true to the original as possible. The biggest challenge was working with materials that matched the spirit of the 19th-century design.
If you’re in the area, stop by the Lincoln Museum & Cultural Centre to see it in person!
