The best things in life seem to always come in the most unexpected ways. Â While looking for ways to raise funds for an inner-city children's ministry, we decided to use reclaimed materials, repurpose them into useful pieces and sell them at a local antique mall. Â Little did we know this would be a glimpse of things to come.
Two years later what began in a small 6x8 booth, evolved into a 4500 square foot consignment store featuring home décor, furniture, antiques and vintage finds. We saw our store as a gathering place for the unique and unexpected, and chose the name Woodstock Market, - "gathering place" - and opened in the fall of 2008.Â
Two weeks later the country plummeted into one of the worst economic downturns in US history since the Great Depression. As fate would have it, our little store flourished. Â Three years later in early 2011 we received an unexpected 60 day notice to vacate. Â Little did we know this would launch us into the most adventurous, part of our journey. Â Once again, the country was on the verge of its second recession. Â So what did we do? Â With a firm belief that anything is possible with God, we took a leap of faith and moved in to a 50,000 sf building, which is now our new home. Â If you are in the area come visit and ask for Karen or Lisa - we'd love to say "hello."
