TimberHomes Vermont, an employee-owned construction company, has always put local first. The company got its start after its founders ran a year-long timber framing workshop for high school students, teaching them how to build a 3-story barn for their school.

“From our start in 2005, we’ve worked with people to build enduring structures that bring communities together, at all scales,” said Timo Bradley, who joined the partnership in soon after it formed.

“We’ve led workshops with the Dartmouth College community to build massive timber bunkhouses and helped countless volunteers install our trailhead kiosks in their parks,” said Timo. “During the pandemic we found a new way to put this concept into practice — building pavilions and outdoor classrooms where people can safely gather.”

TimberHomes Vermont has always worked with local sawyers and loggers and built strictly with local wood. “We’re proud to help push the timber-framing industry toward supporting the local timber economy,” said Timo. “We’re grateful for all the opportunities we’ve had to build beautiful, enduring infrastructure in the Northeast’s great outdoors.”

In 2020, TimberHomes began participating in the Center’s Northern Forest Board Forum, a facilitated, peer-to-peer advisory group that brings leaders of wood product companies together to provide organizational development training and help them advance their businesses.

TimberHomes Vermont has met the soaring demand for outdoor spaces and installations that support ourdoor recreation by creating a line of standard pavilions and kiosks. They also design and build a wide variety of custom projects, which are featured in their website portfolio.
