BETTY'S FUNNY FARM
Brendan Richardson
Brendan has a drafting design degree and
worked in the field of design for five
years.  During the later years working the
field, he had the opportunity to move to the
northern Adirondacks where he became
immersed in the rustic aspect of building
after buying an unfinished cabin to add
character to.  After a couple of years of
building in his spare time he decided to put
his focus into a business of rustic furniture
full time.

Sapling Rustic Furniture was established in
2004 with the goal to make sturdy
authentic Adirondack rustic furniture at an
affordable price.  Over the past few years,
Brendan has refined his products to
improve comfort, function and rustic
design.  He cuts, processes and kiln dries all
his trees to insure quality finished
products.  Brendan works with hardwood
for making beds, table tops, wine bars,  and
custom cabinetry.  Brendan has a few chair
styles including stools, dining, captains, and
rocking chairs built from steam bent
saplings that can be peeled or left with the
bark on.  Chairs currently can be seated in
splint, weave, rush or shaker tape.  We
hope to offer other seating options in the
future.  
Reweave work is also offered.  
Custom work is available.
