Christmas is still a long way off so you don't have to worry about American-made Christmas ornaments yet, but since summer is here, why not think about sprucing up your outdoor surroundings with American-made garden ornaments?

If this sounds like a neat idea to you and something refreshing in the midst of the summer heat, then you should visit www.buzzardtowne.com and browse through dozens of unique and creative ideas for decorating your lawn, garden, or wherever your heart desires.

Owners Troy and Karen Beal started their family-owned, American-owned business in 1997 in an old barn that was eventually converted into their first warehouse. The new company soon grew from delivering and unloading orders from the back of their car to shipping orders to garden centers, nurseries, and gift shops. This rapid growth has required converting a second barn and then building an additional 5,000 square-foot facility.

This growth is happening right here in America by dedicated Americans who are proud to say their products are "Made in USA." Using hand cast Portland cement and sand, your garden ornament starts as a sculpture and is then molded into its unique appearance in North Carolina before it is shipped to your home.

These garden ornaments are truly distinctive and one-of-a-kind. The creativity of an American family-owned business is a refreshing change from the typical corporate cookie-cutter designs of all kinds in today's world.

Visit www.buzzardtowne.com to see the variety this website has to offer. You'll see garden rock faces, message rocks, statues and even wall plaques that can be used to decorate an interior wall. And even though these original and copyrighted items are made of cast stone, they are actually lightweight so you won't pay an arm and a leg for shipping.

If you have a patriotic friend or family on your gift list, consider Buzzard Towne Garden Ornaments. The next best thing to giving a gift made by one American for another American is one made by a patriotic American for another patriotic American.
