We'd like to say a bittersweet goodbye to one of our carpenter's assistant, Fern!

We are excited to see what the future holds for her and wish her the best of luck in all her future endeavours!

We'd also like to take this time to welcome some new faces to our team:
Matt - Red Seal Carpenter
Chris & Connor - Carpenters
Cooper & Donovan - Carpenter's Assistant
We are excited to have them join our team!
