What started seven years ago in a tiny 1,800 sq ft room with just a couple of days a week has exploded into one of the Mohawk Valley’s favorite shopping destinations.

Renewed & Rescued on North Main Street in Herkimer now fills nearly 12,000 square feet, boasts 42 vendors, over 500 consignors, and draws customers from as far away as Japan and South America.

In a brand-new episode of the Building Local Business podcast, owner Tammy Crossway sat down with host Carl Ulinski to share the remarkable journey: from quitting her nonprofit CFO career after a “mid-life crisis,” to taking over the old Wakefield Furniture space next door, opening seven days a week, and still having a waiting list for new vendors.
