The Barn Yard Blog

Rolling hills covered in trees at the peak of fall foliage. A classic-looking barn in a green valley. Blue sky & crisp autumn air. This is Vermont at its finest. For these homeowners, the picturesque Vermont you see on postcards is their own backyard. Take a closer look at the exterior features of this post and beam Carriage Barn in picture-postcard setting.

We demonstrated how to raise the timber frame for the Gallatin Cabin at our 2025 Open House. With authentic joinery precisely crafted by CNC machine & hand-finished, the timbers connected easily and were secured by oak pegs in place of nails. This cabin is available fully built by our crew on your New England property, or shipped in kit form nationwide. Imagine building your own timber frame cabin. Now you can make it a reality. The Barn Yard has many cabin, barn, and home kits, with custom sizes & features available.

Take a tour of the post & beam A-Frame Cabin, Trapper’s Cabin, and Gallatin Cabin, all built with authentic timber frame construction, and learn about the features of each building. Check out the Serenity Cove for a modern take on a building delivered fully finished.

We are excited to introduce a new addition to the post & beam cabin series: the A-Frame Cabin. This cabin is full authentic post & beam. A steep roof extends from the ridge down to the timber sills, creating the A-Frame shape. Enjoy the views of nature through either of the large Andersen windows. With space to work, sleep, and prepare a warm beverage, this cabin is ideal for use as a base camp, home office, or a cozy cabin in the woods. The A-Frame is our first cabin available fully assembled nationwide, with insulation, electric, heat, and air conditioning included. Read on for a photo tour.

These double-bay garages are on display at The Barn Yard’s Ellington Showcase. Spacious, durable, practical, and high-quality, both of these garages will fit in well with your home. Both the Classic Craftsman Garage and the Classic Vintage Garage have 9' x 7' overhead doors leading to two spacious bays, each with a 4' x 12' loft and our Super Floor system. But, these two garages have some distinct differences that make them unique. 

One of the most popular shed series at The Barn Yard is the Classic Series.
