About Us - The Outdoor Living Store
The Outdoor Living Store has always been a family-run business. Craig Schweitzer may be the founder, but his wife Linda has played an essential role from the very beginning. Their children, John, Harrison, and Emma, have all contributed to the company over the years. John is now actively learning the ropes to carry the business forward.
Together, Craig and Linda have built the company on Christian principles. They strive to live out the Gifts of the Holy Spirit in their work, including charity, joy, peace, patience, self-control, wisdom, and fortitude. Craig sees himself not as an owner but as a steward, doing his best to care for the people, opportunities, and resources entrusted to him.
From the beginning, the goal has been simple: serve the community with integrity, treat people with kindness, and do good work that lasts.
