WELCOME TO
Turkey Tail Design + Woodcraft,
I’m Dylan Josephs, founder of Turkey Tail Design + Woodcraft, and I’m thrilled to share a bit about my journey. Following a successful albeit brief stint in the tech industry, I gained an interest in woodworking while trying to convert an empty van into camper so that my partner, dog, and I could visit National Parks around the country. As my skills grew, so did my passion for designing and crafting beautiful, functional pieces by hand, and I began to see how these pieces could bring joy to others. This passion led me to the Furniture Making Intensive program at the North Bennett Street School in Boston, and I haven't looked back since.
At Turkey Tail Design + Woodcraft, I specialize in designing and creating functional wood furniture for your home and space. Whether you’re looking for that centerpiece dining table, a playful set of nightstands, or anything in between, my handcrafted pieces are designed to elevate and complement the beauty of your living environment. I use real hardwoods in all my projects, ensuring that each item is not only visually stunning, but also durable and timeless.
Each piece I create is a tribute to the color and vibrance of the natural world; something that the mass-furniture industry simply cannot replicate. I am proud to offer a number of premium hardwoods and custom sizes, with the intention creating goods that enhance your living space and reflect your individual style.
Thank you for considering me for your woodworking needs. I look forward to helping you bring your vision to life with my custom furniture creations.

Founder, Turkey Tail Design + Woodcraft
Inspired By The Enduring Beauty Of Nature
“The name Turkey Tail Design + Woodcraft is inspired by one of my favorite forest finds—the Turkey Tail Mushroom. I often encounter these unique fungi on fallen trees and stumps during my outdoor adventures. Just as these mushrooms are a natural part of the forest ecosystem, my furniture celebrates the natural world and my humble relation to it. I believe that handmade furniture is a meaningful way to connect with nature, give a tree a second life, and experience its splendor within the home.”

“Turkey Tail’s professionalism, attention to detail, and understanding of our personality were a perfect fit. We really appreciated the recommendations in wood, hardware, and creativity that Turkey Tail suggested to us.”
