tone Center of Kentucky has been open for more than 25 years, but Jeff Schumacher, facility manager, says that some people still don’t know what the Stone Center is. “I still get folks who drive by here and call and will say, ‘Do you sell to homeowners?’” he says. The Stone Center works with both homeowners and contractors on projects large and small. At the yard, shoppers can find natural stone, concrete pavers, retaining wall blocks, mulch and even small rocks. We spoke with Schumacher about three stone products that are ideal for homeowners looking to update their outdoor living areas. Stone Center of Kentucky, 10720 Dixie Highway, Walton. 859-282-8877.

NATURAL PAVING CLASSIC STONE According to Schumacher, this gauged, 1-inch Indian sandstone is easy to install and can be used for almost any project—from patios, porches and sidewalks to interior projects. The versatile stone also has unique color options for homeowners. “[It] offers color variety in natural stone that you don’t find typically in our area,” adds Schumacher.
