1 2017 It s finally spring here in New England and we ve been blessed to see another new year. Country Carpenters saw some wonderful things happen in 2016, one of which was adding a new barn to our village of models here in Hebron - a beautiful fully insulated 18 x /2 story country barn. This now gives you a chance to see how you can have an insulated kit without compromising on the old New England barn look. What a great space for work, hobby or just a get-a-way! We are always working toward providing the best products and support system in the industry which has led us to having some of our craftsmen team become NELMA certified graders. NELMA is the Northeastern Lumber Manufacturers Association. This certification will allow us to grade the timbers we use instead of having them graded at the mill, guaranteeing the very best quality timbers going into every Country Carpenters barn or carriage shed. Hebron Colonial Day was a success again this last September as we turned our village of models into the Town of Hebron in Hebron Colonial Day now has a Facebook page for those interested in colonial history which also helps us keep this history alive for generations to come. Our friend, Max Peters, creator and editor of the on-line magazine Ct. Old House, stopped out during this year s Hebron Colonial Day and then featured us in his publication. If you get a chance check it out at Australia now has a Country Carpenters barn with another to be delivered this summer. It goes to show that our Early New England barn styles have a charm all their own and will fit most anywhere. We would love to have you stop out to visit us or view us online to see our beautiful models on display. From our family to yours, happy and healthy 2017.

2 From our first contact with you, through the arrival of your truck and the raising" with your two wonderful guys, it was an outstanding experience. Your warmth and competence through the entire process was exemplary and a year and a half later we couldn't be happier with the result. The materials and workmanship are first class. Thanks so much and all our best to you and your staff. We absolutely LOVE our barn. It s so much more than we imagined when we saw the models and came up with the design. Having always bought old houses in need of TLC, building something new was an incredible experience. From the beginning you were terrific and your support during the build was invaluable. In some ways, now that it s done, it looks like it s always been there and while it was a much bigger project then we thought, it was completely worth the time About 2 years ago, you helped us raise our barn at Hosack Farm in Hyde Park, NY. At the time, I promised to send some pictures of the completed barn. We built it as a classic New York state, 'bank barn' into a hillside. As you can see, it all worked out very well.

3 C.C. Community News Events and projects involving Country Carpenters The town of Hebron needed to replace a shelter in their commuter parking lot. Country Carpenters worked with the town to provide a structure with beauty and charm in a highly visible entrance to town. The Hebron Historical Society is in the process of restoring the Old Town Hall. Our craftsmen constructed a copy of their deteriorating sign which they painted and hung on the original bracket. Every year we look forward to donating plaque material to our local cub scouts so they can make and present their Arrow of light awards.
