We are in the process of buildong a five bedroom student bunk house. We hope the timber frame community at Cowee Mountain will inspire students to learn what they need to build the structure of their dreams. Click here for photos. Cowee Mountain is not all work. We try to have several group meals together for staff and apprentices.
Every workshop includes one evening campfire and a picnic dinner.
In the future, we hope to have hay rides with the mules. We encourage students to help themselves to apples, blueberries, grapes, pears, and blackberries. About two years ago our small church decided to try to build a building to worship in. We have been meeting in a home but with about 20 families and a number of college students we needed more space. We fell in love with the timber frame style and since we had a large stand of yellow pine and mixed hardwoods available we began to think in terms of doing it all ourselves.
