JK Creative Wood is located in Kalona, Iowa, the largest Amish settlement west of the Mississippi River. Joel and Karma live and work in the midst of the Amish countryside. They have seven children who are involved in the business in a variety of ways. They have been committed to creating quality wood items since 1981. Their children represent the 6th generation of woodworkers. Joel does all the precision cutting while Karma designs each piece. They enjoy working with wood, a renewable natural resource. The sawdust is used by Amish neighbors who recycle the sawdust for animal bedding and ultimately for natural fertilizers on their fields.
