Barn Raising

Stone Coop Farm and Timbers and Pillars Construction would like to invite you to an old-fashioned barn raising Friday, October 11th and Saturday, October 12th. We will be raising an 1860’s era barn, which will be used as an animal barn for the farm.

Friday will be devoted to assembling the various parts and pieces of the barn, and Saturday will be the actual barn raising. You may come as an onlooker (barn raising is a spectator sport) or you may volunteer to be a part of the work crew constructing the barn.
For the work crews, because of the site limitations, we are only taking on 20 people. We need a half day commitment, but you may certainly work an entire day if you wish. We will furnish all the necessary tools; you do not need to bring any.
There will also be a mandatory safety orientation at 7:30am and again at 1:00pm for work crews. If you do not attend the safety orientation you will not be allowed in the work area.
Work will begin at 8:00 and go until 4:30 with breakfast and lunch provided. Please let us know via email (joannee@stonecoopfarm.com) which times you would like to attend.
If you would like to help with the food, please let us know via email as well!
