The Tip is 'Ask family & friends' After reading the Big Secret I began to ask my family and friends about Made in USA products. It amazed me how many of them were already thinking about the subject. After asking the question all of us began to exchange useful information about where to buy Made in USA products. This was a huge help and now my entire family bring me containers with the Made in USA label on them. I record this information for us by Submitting our Secret to Made in America Secrets. Now we won't forget and next time we already know where to buy. Looking is now a family experience and our friends too are involved. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Sanborn Canoe Company SANBORN CANOE COMPANY, at its origin, was a summer hobby by a few buddies to build a cedar-strip canoe with little more knowledge than we had gleaned from a how-to book, purchased at the local bookstore. By the end of that first summer we had a sturdy canoe and a keen interest in crafting a few paddles to ply it. Learning everything the hardest way possible, it seemed, by trial and error we succeeded in carving out a few paddles. Those first paddles led to the desire to learn more and then more about paddle making, until we had made more paddles than we could ever use. And curiously to us, some folks liked them. Wham-Bang, Sanborn was born! From that all-too-clich?d business in our buddies garage we earnestly set out to carve out our niche in the paddling community. This was familiar territory for us, having paddled and extensively backcountry canoe camped throughout canoe country ? for some of us since our early childhood. That heritage had been bred in the early years of the 1900s (and most certainly earlier still), through past generations of our families' paddling in northern Minnesota and beyond. So through our history and eagerness to learn, we quickly grew as a paddling brand. We honed our craft and in time offered up our paddles to retail locations and to the veritable masses, through the almighty internet. |
