Thank you to all who sent in photos of your Barn Yard sheds for the Photo Contest! Our team had a difficult time narrowing down our winners, but remember—even if you weren’t selected, you may still see your photos on our social media, website, and even our next Catalog! Without further ado, here are the winners of our 2025 Shed Photo Contest.

The photo contest is back! Send us a photo of your Barn Yard shed and you could win a VISA gift card! You could also be contacted by our staff photographer to professionally photograph your building.

Each spring, we refresh our showcase locations with the latest offerings, including new models and new features. This year, we’re thrilled to introduce brand new models, timber frame accents to take your shed’s exterior to a new level, new options for shed interiors, and many updates to our showcase. 

Our 6^th Open House was a success. Visitors from across New England—and from as far as Michigan— came by to experience The Barn Yard’s Timber Frame Facility, from a tour of our corporate offices, to a presentation from the Design Team, CNC demonstrations, and a live build of a Gallatin Cabin. We were excited to share the passion and dedication to the timber framing craft with all who attended. We hope you left with more knowledge of timber framing, inspiration to start a post & beam project of your own, or a little bit of both. Check out these recap photos from the Open House.

Buckle up for the epic return of The Barn Yard’s Timber Frame Open House.

You’re invited! Join us for an educational open house at The Barn Yard’s manufacturing & corporate headquarters in Ellington, CT. Go on a full shop tour, watch the CNC machines in action, and learn how to assemble a timber frame. Plus enjoy coffee & homemade donuts. If you’re considering a post & beam project in 2025, this event will answer your questions and inspire you to take your first steps.

With 2025 almost upon us, it’s time to reflect on the incredible year we had. We are very thankful for our customers, our dedicated team, and everything accomplished in 2024, and are looking forward to an even more exciting 2025. Here are this year’s highlights.
