About the event
The team at Green Mountain Timber Frames is excited to announce that we will be erecting an historic blacksmith shop at our business location on West Street in Middletown Springs. The 1890’s barn was originally built in Benson, Vermont, and was the smithy that primarily made and repaired parts for the L.B. Cook Spoke Factory and Saw Mill. We are honored to have been able to save the shop and re-erect it in Middletown Springs to serve as a place for the community to learn the traditional skills of blacksmithing.
Open House, Potluck Dinner and Open Music Jam
Timber frame construction has always been about community – friends and neighbors coming together to help one another put up houses and barns. We want to honor that tradition by inviting our neighbors, friends and family for a two-day barn raising celebration.
The community is invited to an Open House on Wednesday,…
