    I am Mose Meadows Farm. It is the name of the property i live on. It is a 169 acre farm in eastern oklahoma, aka Green Country. I am a small company that deals and sells in antiques, repurposes pieces so that they will continue to be loved and make crafts etc using those antiques and vintage pieces. I am named for the wonderful family that built my home 104 years ago. My company began when i started taking care of my mother. She has alzheimers and dementia. As i grew up she always collected antiques, especially depression glass and drug us to garage sales every weekend with her best friend Shirley Tucker until i got married and began asking her to go with me. She taught me everything i know until i began sharing with her what i learned. Now i am caring for her and have her in an assisted living. She is my silent partner. Half of everything i make goes to her care for the remainder of her life. This is something that not only i love to do but do for the love of my mother.
