Timber Frame Building
TIMBER FRAME OPEN WORKSHOP HOURS (Summer 2022)
In the summer of 2022, we hosted a series of workshops hours to practice the craft of timber frame construction. Through this workshop, participants helped us build an addition to our cultural hall. More info and updates to come.
Another traditional craft we offer workshops on is Timber Frame Building. A process of building that involves joining together mortises and tenons, and securing them with wooden pegs. In the video below, our resident Timber Frame expert, Kim Belfour explains the process very well. We have three timber framed buildings on our property, the Sap House, the Blacksmith Shop, as well as the Lean-To in our nature preserve. Keep an eye out for upcoming timber frame projects and workshops here at the SRC.
