New This Year at the Strawberry Festival on the Topsfield Common! 🍓✨

Join us at the Topsfield Historical Society, 1 Howlett Street, for a live Timber Frame Structure raising!

Presented by the incredible craftspeople from North Bennet Street School, this demonstration showcases traditional building techniques as used in our own Parson Capen House and Gould Barn.

🎉 Kids Build Their Own!
Young builders can try their hand at creating a mini timber frame AND work with fun, old-fashioned tools used in historic construction.

Plus, don’t miss:
Gould Barn Exhibits featuring historic tools and the rich history of Topsfield’s Blacksmiths.

Let’s celebrate craftsmanship, community, and history—see you there!
