Our thermometer in Hebron this winter has ranged anywhere from -17º to 30º but that’s not as bad as
our friends in Maine going down to -40º. We keep on saying that’s ok, spring is on its way and it is a
time of new beginnings. That phrase “new beginnings” gives hope to us in this economy that has been
up and down and taking all of us on a roller coaster ride. In 35 years of business we have been blessed
to ride these ups and downs with a product that is pure New England.
One thing we have always tried to do while designing and building these beautiful barns is to show
some restraint just as our ancestors would have. Proportions, size and lines of the barn along with the
ability of creating charm and warmth is lost in a lot of today’s buildings.
A sustainable lifestyle is also a good thing in today’s economy. You can still have the affordable barn
of your dreams by showing restraint and keeping the project practical. We don’t always have to outdo
our neighbors with bigger building projects. Thinking practically and maintaining an eye for buildings
that compliment the countryside benefits us all and is a worthy goal. That’s where we can help. We not
only have large barns but small ones too. As you look at us on-line at www.countrycarpenters.com or
thumb through our catalog we know you can find that workshop, garage or storage space and not sacri-
fice charm and beauty.
Something we have been working on for 2009 is a barn home. We have had many folks say, “I could
live in this barn,” and soon you will be able to. Another thing we have in the works is at Early New
England Homes by Country Carpenters. Some folks have walked through our model home and said
“this is beautiful, are there other styles available?” We tell them that along with our cape we offer a
saltbox, colonial, gambrel and now in 2009 a smaller version of our 1750 model home. The beautiful
proportions of this timeless classic is a sustainable primary home or a home away from home on that
piece of land you have always wanted to build on.
We know that 2009 will be a year to remember. We hope the memories will be filled with family,
friends and good health.

Hi Leslie
Find enclosed….pictures of our barn. It was
constructed in April…. It is heated and wired.
We had our Christmas eve dinner in the barn
(family tradition—about 60 years)
The barn is my wife’s & mine pride and joy. It
is a work shop, a storage area for my antique
cars ( 1956 jeep CJ-5 and my 1931 Model “A’
Ford) and a storage area for lawn equipment.
Yours truly
John F.

Dear Bill:
What a pleasant surprise to hear from Country
Carpenters.
The Name Plate (supplied by Country Carpen-
ters) is handsome and we plan to place it on the
outside of our handsome building. Typical of
your organization you included the screws.
When the building was in progress with your
two men and my two men, it was most exciting to
see how quickly and how beautifully all of the
pieces fit together. This building has received
much admiration from local people.
We have been hopeful to find another building
that we can collaborate on with Country Car-
penters. We now believe we may have found one.
Kindest personal regards,
Robert H.
