There is a precise moment on a Friday afternoon when the world slows down. The digital notifications fade into the background, the work week slips away, and the aroma of hardwood smoke begins to float across the grass.
For years, our team at Walden Backyards has focused on creating that exact moment. We built heavy-duty fire pits to bring people together around a real fire. But as our community grew, we realized that the "backyard experience" doesn't stop when the fire pit cools down. It includes the meals you share, the games you play, and the intentional spaces you build to escape the chaos of a hyper-connected world.
Today, we are incredibly proud to open the gates to something much bigger: GetBackyarding.com.
What is GetBackyarding.com?
We didn’t build this to be just another crowded online storefront or a nameless warehouse marketplace. GetBackyarding.com is a curated digital ecosystem. We have partnered exclusively with artisan creators, veteran-owned businesses (when/where possible), and elite outdoor brands via an asset-light, direct-to-your-door shipping model.
By removing the traditional retail middleman, we don't focus on moving old warehouse stock. Instead, we spend our time vetting the absolute highest-performing gear on the market—handling the curation so you can focus on the hosting.
Here is a look inside our inaugural, hand-picked collection designed to elevate your outdoor sanctuary this season.
1. The Ultimate Culinary Centerpiece: WPPO Traditional 25" Dual Fueled Pizza Oven
Whether you are a seasoned pitmaster or a weekend casual cook, wood-fired cooking is the ultimate social anchor. The WPPO 25" Dual Fueled Pizza Oven ($999.99) is engineered for those who refuse to compromise.
Powered by either traditional hardwood or convenient gas attachment options, this professional-grade oven heats up to blistering pizza-cooking temperatures in minutes. It isn't just an appliance; it's an immediate backyard event that turns dinner into an interactive experience.
2. Tournament-Grade Socializing: American Cornhole Association American 1776 American Flag Cornhole Boards
A true backyard isn't complete without healthy competition. We partnered with the American Cornhole Association to bring premium, tournament-grade gear to your lawn.
The American 1776 American Flag Cornhole Boards ($298.00) feature a sleek, durable, curved-frame design wrapped in timeless patriotic aesthetics. Built to withstand both high-impact games and changing summer weather, these boards provide the perfect premium social hub for family gatherings.
3. Reimagining the Classics: Elakai Premium Mini Horseshoes Game
If you think lawn games can't be beautiful design pieces, think again. The craftsmen at Elakai Outdoor have completely modernized classic gaming with their Mini Horseshoes Game ($279.99). Crafted with artisan precision, beautiful wood accents, and high-durability metals, it’s a premium conversation piece that looks as good resting on your patio table as it does in active play.
4. The Pitmaster’s Secret: The Walden BBQ Blanket
To tie the entire culinary experience together, we brought our own proprietary innovation to the marketplace. The Walden BBQ Blanket ($34.99) is designed for the low-and-slow barbecue purist.
If you are cooking a full brisket or pork shoulder, the rest phase is just as critical as the smoke phase. Built with advanced closed-cell insulation, this resting wrap holds your meat at the optimal temperature for hours, locking in moisture and ensuring your hard work on the smoker pays off perfectly at the table. Pair it with a premium rub blend from our partners at Hickman’s BBQ, and your culinary setup is complete.
