Welcome to Vermont...



If you're driving North on I-91, just inside of the Vermont Border, you will notice the Vermont Welcome Center.




This is one of my favorite projects from Vermont Timber Works.

The Main Building is a hand hewn Easten White Pine Timber Frame, and the Picnic Shelter and Information Crib are of hand hewn White Oak.

Inside, you will find that the Center is set up like a mini-museum with displays and trivial tidbits about Vermont. There are also computer stations that link to various Chambers of Commerce.
You'll find informative brochures and helpful hints on making your Vermont Visit an unforgettable one. Of course, there is information about Vermont Timber Works readily available.



These next picture show the roof rafters being flown in by the crane, and the frame coming together in the final stages of the raising.





This frame has generated a variety of calls from Passers-by.
Travelers will stop to stretch at the Welcome Center, and will later call Vermont Timber Works to inquire about perhaps obtaining a Timber Frame for themselves.

The quality is undeniably top-shelf, and the Timber Frame is as welcoming as the Center it's housing.

If you're in the neighborhood, stop and see for yourself.
You may decide to call and get an estimate for YOUR next project.
