In this episode, we sit down with Whit Barnes, President of Wildwood, the renowned lamp and lighting company with deep roots in Rocky Mount. Whit shares his background and the family history behind Bulluck’s Furniture, the original business that eventually spun out Wildwood Lamps. While now operating as two separate companies, Bulluck’s and Wildwood remain closely connected through shared heritage, craftsmanship, and a commitment to quality.

We also discuss how Wildwood has successfully navigated recent challenges such as tariffs, adapting its supply chain while continuing to deliver high-quality, design-forward lighting products. Whit offers insight into what it takes to remain competitive in a global market without sacrificing standards or brand integrity.

Last, we highlight the major Bulluck’s Furniture sale currently happening in downtown Rocky Mount, where shoppers can find exceptional deals on fine furniture and lighting. Be sure to stop by Bulluck’s over the next few weekends and take advantage of this rare opportunity—right in the heart of downtown Rocky Mount.
