Bensonwood recently sponsored and attended a Northeast Sustainable Energy Association Pro Tour at a Tektoniks build site in Reading, VT. The featured historic home is undergoing a large addition and net-zero energy retrofit. The day started off at Ascutney outdoors with presentations from Bensonwood, DiMella Shaffer, Snowdog Construction, the homeowner, and other professionals involved with the project. Next, the group traveled to site to hear further presentations about both the retrofit and the Bensonwood Tektoniks addition. It was a highly informative experience and an incredible hands-on opportunity for attendees to have their questions answered by the trades professionals involved with the project.

Bensonwood is proud to participate in Radically Rural, 2024 as a session sponsor. This unique annual event offers a platform for rural leaders across the country to share ideas about building thriving communities. Our sponsored session, Young People and Rural Living: Reframing the Narrative, is a topic dear to our hearts. Our founders chose rural life intentionally in their early 20s, and Bensonwood has helped attract young people from around the world to come and live in rural New Hampshire for five decades. Our job opportunities and new apprenticeship programs serve anyone ready to establish themselves in a rural community and build a career in cutting-edge construction, and we are excited for a robust discussion on this topic in September. Radically Rural is just one of many ways our community demonstrates that while we live in small towns, our impact is big.

Sipping coffee overlooking the water and searching for seashells is on the docket for the new homeowners of this waterfront Tektoniks home in Georgetown, Maine. A set of 29 concrete piers holds this home at a 12-foot elevation. Our architectural partners at Theodore + Theodore Architects integrated the piers so that the home could be close to the water while still meeting building code. Extra recreational space was added under the piers to maximize the design. It's the perfect space to sit and enjoy the connection to nature. Shoutout to Warren Construction Group as one of our new raising partners! Learn more about the Tektoniks Building System at the link below. https://lnkd.in/ggDxcAMg
