Serving Richmond, Columbia & Aiken Counties
Collection and delivery are included on both sides of the river: Olde Town and the Hill, out through Martinez, Evans and Grovetown, and across into North Augusta, Aiken and the horse country behind it. If you are not on the list below, say so anyway — the van crosses the bridge most days.
Collection routes
Augusta and Aiken sit in the valley of the Savannah River, and three things in that landscape decide how a rug fails here rather than somewhere else. There is the river plain itself, laid down in a silt so fine it never announces itself. There is the sand ridge behind it, where the oldest houses in the city were built to catch a breeze and still do exactly that. And there is the horse country over on the South Carolina side, where the material arriving on a boot was engineered to be sharp. A house on the Hill from the 1850s, a new slab in Grovetown and a barn-adjacent cottage in Aiken have almost nothing in common but the weather. These are the areas we collect from most, and what tends to be waiting when we get there.
Summerville
These houses were built to survive a summer without air conditioning, and they still behave that way.

The rugs here are often older and better than the houses they are in, and the trouble starts with arithmetic.

Barn soil is not house dirt with more of it, it is a different material entirely, and this is the one thing about Aiken that no other market on our route has to deal with.
