Happened upon this handy little 3' trail bench while walking the grand-dog out on the nature path. It was a nice place to take a breather while the fur kid got some exercise. We see (and sell) these benches ever day, but it's still fun finding them out and about around town. ]]>

2020 has definitely been a different type of year. As we near the end of this year, we reflect on friends (who we may be missing), things that have been changed (and events that may be cancelled) and look forward to new opportunities and ponder how things will be different in the upcoming new year. During a typical year, our sales staff attend many lawn and garden shows, parks and recreation conventions, and state fairs. They take a variety of our outdoor furniture products, including recycled picnic tables and park benches, so that current and potential customers and see the quality and durability in person. This year we stayed a little closer to home and tried to reach out through mailings and increased on-line presence. We are missing seeing and visiting with everyone in person! Hoping everyone has a wonderful holiday season and that we get to see you in person again soon! Until then - we'll keep reaching out with social media posts and blogging and hope that you reach out to us if you have any product requests, questions, comments, or suggestions!]]>

Thinking back over the years, I can remember many gifts received and think fondly of those who sent them. Some gifts are long gone and some are still around and may bring a smile to my face when I see them or think of them. There are different types of gifts and different types of gift givers. Some people send flowers or chocolates which last only a few days. Some people give clothing which lasts a bit longer. Others give gifts of electronics which (hopefully) last just a bit longer still. Some give figurines, pictures or decorations which may or may not make the cut long term. It also seems that these days, many people just forego gift giving all together and make donations to a favorite charity or cause. Back Atcha Outdoor Furniture can certainly help you with your last minute shopping! If you want to give a useful, durable, low maintenance, 100% recycled gift that will last and bring joy for a lifetime, consider a Park Bench or Picnic Table. These make great gifts for individuals or great donations to a favorite park, school, or trail. There is still time to get one ordered and delivered in time for Christmas - and if you order soon, custom engraving is still an option!]]>

Up until recently, most of the engraved memorial benches leaving our warehouse were also painted. However, like many products in the Covid-19 impacted world, the brand of paint that we use has become more difficult to find and now comes in only a limited the color selection. We had a repeat customer request to order some unpainted engraved benches. When we looked at them, we were quite impressed with how they turned out! The engraving is large enough it can still be seen and easily read from a distance and there is no need for any paint touch-ups at any point in time (so it stays just as beautiful as the day it arrives). Additionally, we are able to keep the unpainted engraved memorial benches affordable since they are much less labor intensive creations than their painted relatives!]]>

As we transition from the old to the new, we think of those we have cared about and lost. An engraved Memorial Park Bench is one way to honor and remember those special people who may have impacted our lives. Maybe you want to create a special place to sit and quietly reflect by yourself, or maybe you'd like to donate a bench or benches to a park, trail, and other location that was special to the people or families being honored. Back Atcha Outdoor Furniture can certainly help you no matter which you choose. If you are looking for a low maintenance, durable monument to someone special, please consider one of our 100% recycled park benches which we can custom engrave for you. ]]>
