Hale Farm & Village is proud to offer a new Preservation Workshop Series - Join us on March 30th for Wood Windows 101. Online Registration will end on March 29 - Please call 330-666-3711 x 1720 to Register after that date.

Replacement windows aren’t all they’re cracked up to be. In fact, a historic wood window will last many times longer than its modern replacement if maintained properly over time. Robert Brookover, craftsman and owner of the Cohee Preservation Company, will demonstrate and discuss the many facets of keeping your historic wood windows in working order for decades to come. Please remember to bring your lunch pail.

(Space is limited)

Participants will learn:

• A brief overview of the history, science, and philosophy of historic wood windows
• Assessment of conditions and planning the restoration
• All steps of restoration from removal to reinstallation
• Historic preservation standards
• Safety equipment and procedures
• Weatherization methods
