Our Team
Janelle
Janelle is the Owner + Founder of Millstream Home. She has always loved all things related to home. As a mother of five, she wanted to be able to pass family heirlooms along to her children, but felt she didn’t have much worth passing. Drawing from her family’s Amish heritage and the desire to create locally-made handcrafted products, the idea of Millstream Home was born.
Some of her earliest memories include playing house and “business lady” and now she’s living out those dreams! She loves the design process and creating items that are both beautiful and practical. One of her favorite pastimes is driving around Lancaster finding new and hidden Makers who will work with Millstream Home.
Janelle lives in Lancaster, where she was born and raised, with her husband Jake and their five children. Together they own and operate a home renovation business called JKS & CO and love building a life + businesses together. Contact Janelle - Janelle@millstreamhome.com
