Spring is all around us
The early spring has been a busy time for us at Historic Barns. Our series of workshops east of the river has been well-attended, thanks to some good publicity and wonderful hosting by local groups in Hebron and Enfield. The inventory of historic barns is over 4,000 now and still rising fast, thanks to the hundreds of enthusiastic photographers who have been out in the fields.
Here's a sample from Ellington photographed by Ellen O'Shaunessy - she's really captured the feel of our New England landscape!
Barns are central to our New England identity. With help from volunteers we find Connecticut's barns and record them in an online database. We also have matching grants to assist with repair and restoration work.
