Kahle’s Kitchens’ Property Dates Back to Early 1900’s

LEEPER, Pa. (EYT) – Kahle’s Kitchens’ property in Leeper has a rich history that dates back to when the Farmington Township High School was constructed.

The high school was built in 1918, and Elgin Sloan, of nearby Shippenville, Pa., supervised the construction.

This early photo (shown above) captures horse-drawn “school buses” and students in front of the new school.

A gymnasium/auditorium was built beside the school shortly after.

The main school building was razed in the late 1960’s. Then, in 1985, Dave Kahle bought the property and began the construction of Kahle’s Factory.

In 1995, Kahle’s Kitchens purchased the old gym structure from Pennstyle/Carmate.

Today, the old gym structure currently houses Kahle’s Kitchens showroom, molding shop, and custom shop.
