Barns can tell us a great deal about the history of agriculture in New Hampshire. John C. Porter, author of Preserving Old Barns: Preventing the Loss of a Valuable Resource, will demonstrate how these majestic barn structures represent Yankee ingenuity, hard work, and skilled craftsmanship, as well as providing a link to our past that adds to the state’s scenic beauty.

The program will be held Saturday, September 26, at 3 p.m. at the Plainfield Town Hall.  Masks are required and chairs will be socially distanced with a maximum of 40 attendees.

Plainfield Historical Society members have the first opportunity to reserve seats.  Email us in advance ( by Thursday, September 24) to reserve a seat.  Contact Jane Stephenson for any questions. president@phsnh.org
