ABOUT ME
Luke Larson grew up on a dairy farm in Wells, Vermont. One of eight children, Luke showed an early interest in woodworking. He spent much time as a child in his grandfather “Papa’s” woodshop and completed a cedar strip wooden canoe at age 16.
During college in Massachusetts, Luke worked part time at a furniture restoration shop and developed a passion for furniture as well as timber framing. During the course of one summer during college, Luke completed his first restoration project; he rehabilitated an 18th century barn on the family farm and turned it into an addition to the house.
After successfully completing bachelor degrees in sociology and psychology at Gordon College, Luke realized that he wanted to return to Vermont to focus on woodworking full time. Luke now lives in Middletown Springs with his two fantastic children. In addition to running his furniture business, Luke also manages Green Mountain Timber Frames and is dedicated to preserving New England’s historic houses and barns.
Passionate about quality craftsmanship, Luke loves the challenges of designing furniture as well as the unique demands of restoring timber frames from the past. Luke also enjoys gardening and playing the fiddle.
