One of the most common methods of building in America’s history was timber framing. Brought over by settlers from Europe, timber framing took advantage of the available resources. Clearing your land for crops and animals, and using the trees you cut down to build your barn and house was the pioneer way. Timber frame barns today, built with traditional methods, create a connection to our country’s heritage and offer modern advantages at the same time. Function and beauty are the trademark of our timber frame barns.
