Ohio Map Welcome to Adams County, Ohio! USA Ohio Map
The Cedar Works, Inc. offers an excellent example of the county's home-grown success. A manufacturer of red cedar bird feeders, bird houses, mailboxes, and mailbox posts, the company started out on a small farm site in 1976. Today more than 250 workers are employed at two facilities in Peebles and West Union. Cedar Works sells its products throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico and several European countries. According to Jim Obenshain, President, the transportation network allows local companies to maintain ties with major markets without giving up their relaxed quality of life. "We have the best of both worlds because traffic is virtually nonexistent, even though you have access to a four-lane highway that runs right through the county."
