Shaping our future.
Building Together.
Jolly Wood & Garden Collective is centered in creating space for you to be great. We’re dedicated in our mission to promote wellness and self-sufficiency through two connected crafts: woodworking and gardening.
We teach practical woodworking skills for building sheds, chicken coops and other outdoor structures, as well as space-efficient garden systems — empowering individuals to build with purpose and make conscious lifestyle changes.
Built to Thrive Initiative (BTI)
The Built to Thrive Initiative exists to build practical, high-quality outdoor structures for individuals and families who would otherwise be unable to afford them. For many households, a simple structure can create lasting change.
Through donated materials, volunteer craftsmanship, and grant funding, we construct sheds, pergolas, gazebos, chicken coops, dog houses, raised garden beds, trellises, and other essential backyard structures that directly improve daily life.
Space is not a luxury. We’re giving our communities the space to store, create, work, and inspire others to do the same. Participants have the opportunity to learn valuable wood working skills while leaving a direct impact on their community.
Starting a garden?
Gardening supports and reinforces our mind, body, and environment connections. Growing your own food has a substantial effect on your diet, physical, mental and emotional health.
This project does not establish edible gardens (planting seeds and maintaining garden). We currently build garden infrastructure specializing in space optimization.
Not surviving but thriving
We’re here to build and educate- so we can continue to share and develop our skills with others. Woodworking is an essential craft to hone and presents numerous employment opportunities, whether for yourself or a company. Learn more our online and in person courses to learn valuable knowledge and gain access to volunteer opportunities to help complete donation projects for our BTI recipients.
