Darrin K. Herbst
Owner, Harvest Moon Construction
For Darrin K. Herbst, construction has always been about more than building things. It’s about understanding how they work, solving problems, and helping homeowners turn their ideas into reality.
Darrin began his career in residential construction in 1988, learning the trade alongside experienced craftsmen. From the beginning, he developed a passion for understanding every aspect of the building process, from framing and structural construction to detailed finish carpentry.
Over the years, he progressed from carpenter to lead carpenter and residential project manager, gaining extensive experience in residential additions, kitchen remodeling, custom carpentry, and complete home renovations.
A veteran of the United States Marine Corps, where he served four years and received an honorable discharge, Darrin values responsibility, teamwork, and following through on commitments.
In 2006, Darrin established Harvest Moon Construction, bringing together his hands-on craftsmanship, project management experience, and commitment to personalized customer service.
Today, with nearly four decades of construction experience, Darrin continues to approach every project with the same philosophy that has guided his career:
Work smarter, not harder. Keep things simple. And never complicate something that doesn’t need to be complicated.
Whether planning a kitchen remodel, creating custom built-ins, installing architectural trim, or solving an unexpected construction challenge, Darrin believes the best results begin with understanding the homeowner’s goals.
He takes pride in helping customers explore their options, anticipate potential challenges, and make informed decisions about their homes.
His experience managing multiple trades and complex residential projects allows him to see the bigger picture while still paying attention to the small details that make quality craftsmanship stand out.
Darrin believes good construction requires careful planning, honest communication, respect for the customer’s home, and the experience to recognize when a better solution is available.
At Harvest Moon Construction, you’re not simply hiring someone to perform a task. You’re working directly with an experienced craftsman and project manager who takes a personal interest in the success of your project.
For Darrin, the most rewarding part of construction is seeing a homeowner’s vision come together—and knowing the work was done with care, skill, and pride. Contact Harvest Moon Construction today to discuss your project and bring your vision to life.
